Default Re: humbers

Yes, I have seen one pic of a Humber 8 cwt 4X2 as in your AWM artillery pic, being used by Aussies . In the AWM series books , published during and just after the war e.g., HMAS and all a the rest of them . In the SIGNALS book , there is a pic of FFW 4X2 Humber with some Aussies leaning on the bonnet, they have a map , discussing tactics .....

Mike,

That is a very interesting vehicle. did he bring it over to Australia.

By the way, if the photos showed signalers looking at a map, they were not discussing tactics but the best way to use it to wrap their fish and chips the cook had promised for dinner!
