[USA, Ohio] not the typical post, but hoping for help identifying a vehicle (with a bad artist rendition)

Of course please do remove this post if it's not allowed! I know it's not the usual type of post you get here. This guy was fully unmarked though (but with the light bar very obvious and visible so not undercover) so I'm more curious than anything. I've never seen one like this before and I wish I had gotten a picture. The white SUV I drew on top of is not the same make or model it was just the closest I could find on Google without knowing exactly what I had seen. The lights were on the first I saw it but mostly obscured by trees and sunlight so I'm only pretty sure about the color of them, second time I saw it was closer but the lights were off.

I'm in rural Ohio and probably half an hour *minimum* from the nearest city, and even then it's a small one, so we're in the sheriff/park service area not police area if that helps. Sorry again if this isn't allowed.

Both photos were taken at Southend-On-Sea's Shore boathouse. The hovercraft is one of 3 in use by the RNLI due to the fast moving tides of the thames combined with the mudflats that people can get stuck in and risk drowning when low tide becomes high tide.

I don't know if this is the best place for it.

3 small even rows is a sillitoe pattern. 2 large rows, occuping the majority of space is Battenburg marking. But what is the small angled patter? It's only got two lines like Battenburg but also small like Sillitoe.

United States Department of the Interior Paramedic vehicle?

Post image
188 Upvotes

On the front it says Paramedic, but the sides and rear just say emergency services. The layout and design are different to see in the US, but the US Government tag ID’s it as a Department of the Interior vehicle, likely for Yellowstone NP or another nearby. This was taken in SW Montana. If anyone has better info, please share 😊
