Interesting pic Hanno, I'm guessing they've only just come across this vehicle and judging by the interest shown it's the first time they've laid eyes on a CMP! Notice the way they're hurrying down the road to check it out! They look pretty relaxed and unarmed so presumably its former owners have long since departed. If it's on Crete they probably drove it down to the coast and abandoned it before being evacuated by sea. Looks like they've hit something and bent the bumper back onto the LH tyre so they removed it. They've relocated the unit sign (2/6 Battalion) from the bracket on the bumper to the mudguard.
