Default Could be

I looked up V5202 reg number number of a AIF chev GS Van , the vehicle I spotted in one of the LIFE magazine photos, the photos depict vehicles in Malaya , some of the pics are in colour.

The said V5202 number in the AWM books has the vehicle being shipped to 'E' on the ship Montferland . I think E = Far East.

Looked up a few of the Chev GS vans shipped to ME and some of them were returned home and then passed onto other military units, the units are named in the LH side columns.
