Larry..
The RAF on the door of the truck and the RAF on the motorcycle license tell the vehicle story,but the motorcycle driver has the old style shoulder flash of the Royal Canadian Air Force..
Can't tell on the other two lads in uniform but are probably Canadian's also..

The CANADA can be clearly seen above the "G.U.11"..G.U.Eleven" aircraft..
(Our old hanger line joke for any seagull that happened by.."Oh there goes another squadron of G.U.Elevens.."!!!
