Talking of bus markings making it easy for the enemy, I remember as a RAFG dependent in the late 1980s being transported on a families outing aboard an olive green bus with a stonking great big British flag painted on the side, right at the height of the IRA campaign against BFG. Didn't seem like a good idea at the time, even to this (then) 12-year old...
