My HMMWV has "US Army NG4D4B" markings at the left and right area by the seats in 3" vinyl. Anyone know where it may have been?

Do those numbers match up to the Registration Number on the data plate? If so, it has nothing to do with the National Guard.

You know, I never made that connection. So simple Feeling kind of moronic actually. So that's that. Thank you.

No big deal. Just happens to be one of those things you learn after being around MVs a while.

So why the numbers inside, in two places?

Inventory. So you can just look in a window and verify versus opening the vehicle and looking at the data plate. Much quicker.

Also, with the standards set by the camouflage regs, the vehicle's number was not supposed to be visible unless one looked in the cab. Usually the military registrations used to be done in black on the driver and passengers doors down low, so you had to open the doors to verify. I guess since then they have moved the registration numbers to the dashboard in this case. Live & Learn! Have a Great Evening!
