Sorry Kevin, I could not read the WD number in the photo. The Regimental history was published in 1947 and the photo is very grainy.

I don’t think so. The Canadians left their tanks in Holland after the end of the war. Only a hand full of AFV were returned to Canada. M5A1s were also used in Canada after the war, so most likely they are different tanks.
