The vehicle left Australia aboard the transport Chios around 28 June 1941 (the shipping dates in AWM126 can be a bit rubbery.)
The 88 unit sign white/blue with 88 in red numerals, is the 2/7th Aust Field Regiment Signals Section, then serving as part of 9th Aust Infantry Division (the platypus over the boomerang on the upper part of the plate).

Hello Mike,
"Allies" that is what people like Tony Smith and Mike Kelly are, Mike C.
What software program do people use to zoom in to read the ARN? There is a current thread on another part of MLU called "How good is your eye sight". My response to that is obviously "not" & "Very".
Kind regards
Lionel
