From Frank Flavell:
That looks like an ordinary post tag. The metal plate was likely provided by the vehicle owner because he did not like putting stickers on his bumper. The thing under the sticker is probably the previous post tag, they expired and had to be renewed every few years. The tags were used for POV's owned by site members. They were to identify vehicles owned by those who worked there. On any military post, cars allowed on post are required to display a post tag. Nowadays it's a DOD sticker posted in the windshield, with the name of the installation on a separate sticker under the main one, and the expiration date (month and year) also displayed. The color of the sticker usually tells you what the status of the owner is. Blue for officers, red for enlisted, green for civilian employees, and black for contractors. Since the lettering on this one is black, I assume it was for a contractor.
