To find something with this level of interesting stenciling intact is very special - I believe it would be worth a lot more in future for these to be preserved rather than obliterated in a repaint.

Default Date Stamp
Think in American ... September 13, 1944...

The history website or http://www.brainyhistory.com/days/september_13.html shows a few battle dates..

There are a few significant dates at that time... One may be intimately connected with that vehicle...
