Hello,

I am looking for some decals for support units, such as (axis and/or allies) medical units, transportation units, logistical support (supply) and military police.

I looked at Star, Bison and one other and really not found anything.

ICM at one point had a big sheet of tactical decals which were based on the page in Panzer Colours. Lots of tactical markings like toolshops, bakery, medical, etc. Ebay has many different Red Cross AM decals. Any particular unit in mind?

Really good question. Still need to research the units, but I do know where to look, for a few dio's.

One is a WC54, most likely, attached to the U.S. Field Hospital captured at Bastogne, the 326th Airborne Medical

Also need to find the supply troops attached to the Canadian's involved in operation Veritable, dio idea is an ammo truck reloading a Firefly, with a M4A4 parked nearby and a bivouac. Cannot find a Canadian field kitchen, nor British, or U.S.

Got one for the U.S. around operation Cobra, or the approach to Paris. Either is going to be a scout troop element resting. I am thinking this need either a M3 scout car, or an M2 half track. Still in the conceptualization stage on this, and acquisition.

Hm. Can't help too much on the allied side. I know they had divisional and AOS symbols. Not too sure if they had tactical markings similar to the Germans though. You might try Archer decals. They make lots of Canadian decals and even make decals for the 53rd Welsh which also took part in that operation.
