Amongst the vehicles is a Loyd TS&C (confirmed by census number) which carries the same markings as the Shermans, Valentines and Crusader AAs- ie Div/Brigade sign, AoS square with unit number and Squadron sign
As an aside, interesting to see the 17 Pdrs on the Fireflies covered by tarps.

Interesting find Simon! The video seems to show the same location and group as the pictures posted above and in Nigels book.
