Hi Alex,

The QL was mine, the GMC and Lend Lease Chev drivers are not on MLU, we had been on the MVT run to Hill 112 hence why we were late. Nice to meet up with a few guys there though. I went up to Longues again later in the week and as we turned in by the shop, a Veteran pointed at the QL, we had barely stopped in the campsite before he appeared. Apparantly he was talking to one of our members saying that he had not seen a QL since he drove them in the Army, then we drove around the corner. He had his photo taken in the cab and I am sure it made his week.
