Default Morris WD numbers

Hello and greetings from sunny and warm Holland!
I have this picture of some Turkish Morris trucks in late WW2 and I think these are still in Brits WD numbers. I have enlarged the pic and I think the right truck should read:
Z4328412 but it is hard...

Default thanks

Thanks for the proper ID. It is an AP picture and the caption in a Dutch publication says it is "end of war"...
Cheers

Default Suggestion

Z 4307852 to 4310851 Contract V/3861 Truck 15 cwt 4x2 GS ?? Why did they retain their WD Numbers? Odd.
