WWII Military Allied Vehicle Stars<\/p>\n
A lot in terms of WWII allied stars, was done even by \u201cfree format\u201d and \/ or lost by interpretation in field orders and memos top down, from command to captain, sergeant, corporal to the soldier who had to paint a vehicle. Except that where consisted \u201cguidelines\u201d introduced by the allied troops like the 1942 US Army - AR 850-5 and some harder to find Commonwealth manuals. Before the 1943 Italian Sicily campaign \u201cOperation Husky\u201d and later ETO 1944 France, Normandy \u201cOverlord\u201d \/ D-Day. It was common for allied vehicles overseas to carry a simple white star as an identifier. But in the dust and confusion of battle, the allied or \u201cUS star\u201d could occasionally be mistaken for a German Cross at ranges over 1000 yards.
\nIn fact, tankers and armoured units began painting out the stars to avoid becoming a casualty of \u2018friendly fire\u2019, especially from allied air units. The problem got so bad that in this period the term \u201cAmerican Luftwaffe\u201d was coined. (This was a genuine nickname given to the 9th USAAF by allied armoured troops back then.) Experienced units like the 2nd Armoured started painting out their stars altogether. The (friendly) aircraft recognition circles were completely around and uninterrupted, as well \u201cbroken\u201d with 4 and 5 gaps, if they were made from oil board paint mask stencils. There are even WWII photos with 8 gap circles.<\/p>\n
