AIF shipments to ME '40
In his Profile book on Field Artillery, Mike Cecil states that a batch of Australian built (assembled) Marmon Herrington 3/3A Gun Tractors were despatched to the Middle East in Jan 1940, seeing service in Egypt, Libya, Palestine and Syria. He also states that all Aust. artillery regiments were equipped with these vehicles at one time or another, presumably indicating they were possibly quite common in Arty columns in Libya, where 9 separate Australian Field Artillery Regiments saw service.
