That A2 would have been originally #24087 OD Semi-gloss if US Army in 1973.
U.S.M.C color is a little different # (can't find the proper number right
now)? Color depends what era your going for.. Vietnam, Post Vietnam,
Grenada, Desert Storm.
Many vehicles had the R.O.P.S. added after vehicles were delivered to active
duty army units. Yours may have been a work order modification performed at
a maintenance unit after initial delivery to the Army. If you provide more
of a description maybe some of us on the list could tell for sure.
