Here's an interesting pair of photographs. Both of these canteens appear to be British. The one in town looks to have been transferred to the Dutch Salvation Army. So I suspect this photo might be circa 1945-46, as it appears to still retain markings on the fenders and the star on the door. But I have no caption and no other information. The one with the windmill in the background routinely appears with Canadian Salvation Army tie ins although the truck appears British to me. The shield is of the style usually used by the British Salvation Army and not the Canadian at the time. Still I know some of our members are in/from The Netherlands and it would be impolite of me not to share these two.
