Default RMR armoured cars

Found this in the RMR history. The advance party of the First Canadian Army Headquarters Defence Company embarked for Normandy on June 15, 1944.
"The Armoured Car Troop, though remaining as part of the First Canadian Army Headquarters Defence Company, had come under the direct orders of General Crerar's Personal Assistant. It had been arranged that command of the troop would be excercised in this way during its service as the General's mobile escort in France and as his permanent bodyguard from sunset to dawn."
Perhaps this is part of the troop in the background.
