Hi to all. Some more Kiwi CMP's for your files.
Firstly, something for almost every section of the forum!
DA-01495: General view of Major General Bernard Freyberg reviewing the Mechanized Brigade at Helwan, Egypt. Taken on 26 September 1941 by an official photographer. 23 on Brown square on front row of CMP's was 26th Infantry Battalion in September 1941. Most of the vehicles in this photo appear to be either brand new, or in the case of the carriers, freshly painted!
I've also uploaded a large format (14meg) copy of this to my Dropbox public folder at
