Default GMC badges

Cheers Cliff. I can guess that they might have had civilian-style front ends? I'll check my Master Parts List drawings to see if the badge is listed for US Government orders. The '39 and '40 Chevrolets to military order had painted-over Chevrolet grille scripts, but the GMCs to French order that landed here lacked any side badges but at least some had "GMC" script in the top of the rad grille.

Did the Australian forces used Maple Leaf Trucks? They of course had the badges in the same place as the GMCs, with the Maple Leaf symbol but from memory MLs in Canadian service that I have photos of lacked the badges.
