Such a personal marking on a vehicle wasn’t unknown on Allied vehicles either, though they tend to be more difficult to find pictures of.
Basically, the marking takes the place of the “Lady’s favour (ribbon)” that used to be worn on a Knight’s Helm during either Tourney or Battle.
And the belief is similar: that the symbol will ward-off evil that approaches the one who carries it.
As example on an allied vehicle, I have seen a heart applied on both a Cromwell, and a Valentine, and a Jeep, both latter vehicles seen in real.

Isn’t that a Russian machine gun?
Ja, Soviet PM1910, simply known as Maxim MG.

Holy crap is taht real??! or is that just a joke
I’m pretty sure its real, though I have a tough time telling if its WW1 or WW2 - If it is WW2, as I believe, than this is only from a training exercise - there were no Gas attacks in WW2…
Kar98k
Kar98b
Gew98
I think its a Kar98b, which is after WWI…
Compare and contrast
Well, the sights on the top of the gun make it look somewhat like the original Mauser 98, but i seem to see a little dent on the side, which would speak for a K98b.
I’m starting to think that this is probably from a training exercise of the Weimar Republic…
:)):))=))…lol…nice pictures…:D:D…but the best is the donkey rocket loncer and the breakdanceing…or the babys:))))=))…
Honorable ladies and gentlemen, I am under painful necessity of informing you that in consequence of having supported several serious architectonic re-compositions of my dearly beloved library during the last two months I was quite incapable of facing my engagements here. 
As soon as our heavy constructive works here can be accomplished - in two weeks at the most - I hope to be able to do honour to all my liabilities. 
In the meantime, here is another example of a new full-color apotheosis of the rare & funny vera eikon:
Hänsel, pull up here, Hänsel rip it up there… Hänsel is working everyvhere! (He 111, KG 55 Greif) [Original inscription: “Success is the result of hard work”, “Signal” U/Nr. 12-42]
In our opinion the complaint is not correct.
The second guy from the left looks like a co-worker I had :shock:
Germans invented breakdance. :twisted:

Halt Hammerziat!
This has to be the third time these two pictures were posted in this thread… 
Just an idle thought, but on Malta and at times in the desert, the Brits used to start aircraft by swinging the prop through with a rope that had a leather-wrapped loop which was placed around the prop blade. The exercise usually took 3 to 4 brave (and damn quick on their feet(!)) men to carry out successfully.
Librarian, I wondered if there are images of the same process in the Luftwaffe or Regia Aeronautica?

Another one of the “giant/midget” kind:
The smallest and the tallest soldier of 1st Company/Sturm-Regiment 215:
here you go

Nothing lasts forever, honorable ladies and gentlemen. Even the longest, the most glittering contractual obligation must come to an end. And after the silly season comes the truly productive season. Therefore – here we go!
Oil be damned! I told you, Mischel, that it was incorrect to refil the Steering circuit to the filler cap with 28 buckets of Winterschall’s Lubrol! Equally, hitting the cylinder with a hammer will not cure pinging; we have achieved reverse steering instead!

Possibly, my dear Mr. Uyraell. And I am assuring you that we’ll do our best to find them!
In the meantime, as always all the best!
