Mystery Markings on USMC Garand belt

Howdy all - was wondering if anybody had any experience with any of the markings on the inside of this belt. Looks like possibly three different names stenciled on it:

 

"J. H. Miller"

"Beckner, ?"

"A. F. Coyle"?

 

The Miller name is in - what I consider - stencil more characteristic to WWII, but who knows...

 

Keen interest in the black square with the diagonal line inside it, and the white triangle with the exclamation point (maybe?) inside it.

 

Any and all opinions welcome - thanks friends!

Hello there, I'm new on the forum. Really beautiful belt. I believe there is a thread somewhere on here discussing markings on usmc gear other than UNIS like the tiangle. There aren't any answers as to what the marks mean. It definitely looks like it was issued to three different marines.
