Hi

Cheers Phil

My father said he drove a Jeep in Port Moresby , he was RAN . But he was probably not sober at the time , and it was likely inbetween his raiding of US army stores depots . Digging under fences , or giving the guard a bottle of whisky were the normal tactics. Mike

Indeed, although Jeeps were quite common in Navy service.

Here's another CMP in Navy service, albeit US: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/showthread.php?t=9989

There's a restored C15A Cab 11/12 in the UK, reportedly ex-RN too.
