Now that makes a LOT more sense
that'd make it B-12 (12th vehicle in Bravo company) and likely a company
support vehicle and not one of the crucial numbers like 1,2, or 6. (co, xo
and Field grade co)
3-7 was an airborne unit that had the designation "SFG(A)", designated that
in 1960 at Ft Bragg.

Subject: Re: [MV] M38 Markings Revisited (More)
I was on the phone this morning with Rick Larsen (Mil-Stencil) and he
thought the vehicle number was awfully high too. He also thought that the
"82" was probably either over or under the other numbers. I looked carefully
and it does appear that the 82 is newer than the 3-7 SFGA. Also, the dash
between the 82 and the 3 is different than the dash between the 3 and the 7.
The B125 on the driver's side looks like the 5 is newer. On the passenger
side rear bumperette there is also a B??. Only two digits that I can't read.
So I am going with the 3-7 SFGA and B12.
Thanks for the great information so far. I painted the first coat today and
it looks great.
