Default Pissed-off Generals in a Meaford snow storm

Want to share this shot from the Grey Bruce Image Archives Group.
Could be a "Oh Sxxt Moment"....
A 1945 photo at Meaford firing range. Safe to say..live fire..
Featuring Gen. McNaughton and Maj-Gen F.F. Worthington, looking very unhappy in the middle of a snow storm.

..."Standing between two Grizzly tanks in the snow, Gen. A. G. L. McNaughton watches exercises on the Meaford range. From left: Maj. D. N. Lander, W. P. Mulock, Capt. R. Labelle, Capt. H. C. Hodges, Gen. McNaughton, Maj.-Gen. F. F. Worthington ".......

Looking closely at the zoom-in, Perhaps Capt. Hodges will be standing drinks in the officers mess a bit later.


To make things even more interesting, the photographer was from the Toronto Star newspaper. I'll bet the General's loved that.

Bit of a head scratcher.
