Einsatzkommando truck insignia
In the book "Bloodlands" page 235 it mentions "An Einsatzkommando painted Stars of David on their trucks to broadcast their mission of finding Jews and killing them". It looks like this happened in early 1942. Does anyone know which units this is or have a picture? Thanks in advance.

Timothy Snyder, author "Bloodlands", implies this truck i.d. was from Einsatzgruppe B.
Whilst I cannot say one way or the other about EG B vehicle identification; the vehicles of the various Kommandos of Einsatzgruppe D used the spades, diamonds etc from playing cards. This happened from June 1941 when leaving the assembly areas at Pretzsch.
