Except for the big red spray painted X accross the hood that I also unearthed.......
There was a message sent to all the base supply major equipment sections that the M151A2s were to have the red X sprayed over the hood to show that the vehicle was not to be sold other than as salvage. All my 30 Mutts from Shilo had it, and the 15 or 23 from Winnipeg (it's too many years now, I am starting to forget) had it as well.

If your X was painted over, is it possible that your jeep had been repainted post service?
