Hi,
Sometimes the rule is lack of rule…
Here it is "Polish style" from the MTO. For example selected AFVs of the Polish 4th Armoured Regiment "The Scorpions" can be seen with this lettering. The same goes for the Polish 7th Anti-Armour Regiment -- both regiments of the Polish 2nd Corps fighting at Italian fronts.
The other type of the Polish style AoS can be seen below. This is modern reenacting photo none the less it shows very well the jeep that belongs to 12. Pułk Ułanów Podolskich (12th Podolian Ulan Regiment). The regiment belonged to the Polish 3. Dywizja Strzelców Karpackich (3rd Carpathian Rifles Division) and it was divisional reconnaissance unit. The 3rd Division was an element of the Polish 2nd Corps in Italy.
