Since you're looking for marking I think you want flame throwing tanks - correct?

You may want to search for Pacific war operations types of searches. FT's were used mostly in the PTO and you may be able to 'back into' some marking sites that way.

Bob,

Found this, it's quite a lot of reading, which I didn't read all of but it may shed some insight.

Hope it helps some.

Steve, Thanks. did help. got my tubes on pack wrong but seems to be no markings on any pics shown. A little artistic lic. may prevail though just for color contrast.
