Does anyone have or can tell me where to locate a photo of an EOD Jeep. Lacking a photo, can anyone describe the special insignia and/or markings? I just learned from a recent post that they may have had red on the fenders, etc. My restoration is taking that direction and would like to have it correct. Thanks, Sonny

Navy, Army, Air Force or Marines?

Thanks for the reply here and on the other site - I am representing the Army

A lot depends on what EOD unit, time frame and location you wish to portray.

Here's a few sites that can help.

Wes - thank you - this is a ton of great information that I will be researching for awhile. BTW, are you aware of the red fenders that Ben spoke of on the other site?

I think you'll find the red fender thing a stateside thing and probably a local uniy CO choice.
