Tactical markings (may consist of
stripes, geometrical figures, other
simple designs, or naming of
individual vehicle). The markings
will be used to provide a more
visible means of identifying the
vehicles of tactical units by
personnel of those units during
tactical operations. They will be
of a suitable size to facilitate
identification from ground or from
a reasonable distance. They will
be designed to be as nearly
unintelligible as possible to
enemy observation. Under no
circumstances will the markings
represent the numerical
designation or distinctive insignia
of any unit. Under actual combat
conditions, no written record will
be made, nor published system of
tactical markings used.
Any appropriate color
As prescribed by commanders of
major Army commands; any
changes must be approved by
these commanders.
29.

actually being used for a priority
mission and must be removed
when no longer required for that
mission.)

mounted on vehicles in
accordance with TB 43-0209.
