    It's an abbreviation to save typing 'If I Remember Correctly'.

      Thanks, but do you happen to know just why they applied this coat of paint? Protection? Just curiosity.  Sometimes abbreviations are not fully understood by us guys from other countries!! Thanks again.

        No idea, some had it others didn't. It could be just to stop too much glare from the underside on bombing runs, or reflection from underneath from high altitudes being visible from the ground.
