The photos will I hope be in a small book on the second Canadian Mechanization Depot in Slough. The photo is a mystery to me..the truck carries a 'CMD' assembly number indicating that it had not been allocated a Census Number and may have been newly-assembled. It has a # 12 Cab and Lindsay house type body I thought BUT Canadian production ended in August 1941. Next to the F60H is a Ford Jeep to Canadian order, crated up for shipment with 'USPB'. Then there is what appears to be a C8A HUP, and yet it appears that these were assembled int he UK from spring 1942 onwards. Does anyone know when the first Canadian Jeeps were shipped overseas? I reckon the photo was taken in 1942 but the F60H which was one of about 200 shipped to the UK by August '41 looks anachronistic.
