Hey Mike,

Don't forget there was also a Marine Corps series of V-Discs, much more
short-lived than the Army & Navy series, but with the standard label design
rendered in black and green - quite striking.

Here's one:

Notice that the one pictured on YouTube states at the bottom that it is
"Issued by the U.S. Air Force".  There were two series of V-Discs from
the Army and the Navy during the war.  Since the Air Force was part of
the Army till after the war, maybe this is the new Air Force's
competitive effort.  I think Dick Sears' book does indicate when the
V-Disc program was ended, but this might be a Korean War extension.
