Hi Alex,
Great picture of the stretcher jeep! This is the first photo I have seen where it shows the left side of a jeep ambulance.I did come across a photo of 2 wounded Canadian soldiers sitting in the back of a stretcher jeep and this answered a question I had about the position of where the red cross was painted on the left side of a jeep ambulance.The shovel & axe were in the way of placing it in the same position as on the right hand side,just in front of the rear wheel well but the photo with the wounded soldiers shows the red cross painted behind the left wheel well along the top and now your photo confirms for me that is the correct spot.I also noticed in your photo that the 2 ammo boxes bolted to the front fenders have the unit & formation signs painted on the front of the boxes.The right box has the 75 painted on the front of it and on the left box has the formation sign on the front.It also has a red cross painted on the windshield canvas cover.Something different than the rest of the stretcher jeeps is the blackout light in the right headlight and the bridge plate covering the left headlight hole.Interesting!Thanks for sharing the photo.
Clive,
I thought the same thing for the tire pressures,although not standard markings.I do remember seeing a photo somewhere of a jeep with wounded towing a trailer but was some time ago.I would like to find it again cause it has me curious as to what unit it belonged to.
