Installing the directionals

And I'm looking through the wiring diagram, and more than a little confused.
I have the old, 1950's military style, and it lists a "light switch", a "distribution box" and a "directional switch". All are marked with letters. I assume the "distribution box" is the relay box

and the "directional switch" is the steering column mounted lever. But what is the "light switch"? The back of what I thought was the light switch has no letters

The receptacle on the back of the light switch has the pin numbers molded into the black rubber surface that the pins are setting in. Get a magnifying glass and clean the rubber and you will see them.

You don't happen to have a pic of the back of the light switch, do you? The guy who sold me the jeep, did a patch up wiring job. They are stripped and clamped together like on a civilian car.

This is the back of my light switch.

I can trace the numbers from here

Do I need to splice the wires from the relay box into the appropriate lettered wires on the back of the light switch?

Also, my turn signal wiring diagram has gone missing, if anyone has one, please provide me with a link. I looked in your gallery Wes, and I couldn't find one.
