Alan,

Thanks for sharing your photos and increasing our knowledge of the subject! With regard to the markings I think many would suggest that the MU 2 in CFMU 2 was for Maintenance Unit 2! The C could be for Combined? The F could be for Fleet or Forces. I need to learn more about the organisation of the RN fleets get an answer!

After the CFMU 2 is a number which I would suggest is a number given to each vehicle in the unit.

As the 'Tilly' has a white star & circle sign on the bonnet, it would suggest a UK or NW European RN unit. Perhaps they had a role in the D-Day landings?

As for NP1712 its common to nearly all the vehicles you posted but I have no idea what it means!

With regard to the Bedford 15cwt W/T I note it has the same 'odd looking' oversized body as the very first photo I posted in the thread, so it must have been made that way.

Keep them coming!
