Default 2-pounder anti-tank gun tractor

Hi

Can anyone tell me what vehicles were used by CANADIAN anti-tank regiments to tow the 2-pounder anti-tank gun? The unit history of 3 Anti-tank Regiment RCA mentions 15-cwt trucks and a gunner I met from another regiment says they used universal carriers.

The British used portees and Morris quads - I think.

Doug, the universal carrier was used quite often in towing the 2 pdr, at least from photos I have seen of A/T regts in action. I have also seen jeeps, 15cwt and even HT vehs towing same.
