Default Wanted:pictures of Q.O.C.H.of Canada universal carriers

To MLU Members,
I have been searching like crazy on the internet looking for WWII pictures of universal carriers of the Queen's own Cameron Highlanders of Canada.I was asked by the association to display my carrier at their 100th anniversary display and I cannot find one clear photo of the front of one of their carriers.My research has the formation sign as being the blue square with a gold maple leaf with the C II in the middle of the leaf.As for the unit sign,they were 68 in northwest europe but am unclear of the background color of the unit sign.It is either brown or I was also told maroon.Does anybody know what the background color was for the 6th Canadian infantry brigade in the 2nd Canadian infantry Division? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am not having any luck in my searches.I would like to repaint my carrier to this regiment and want all the proper signs and identification markings to be correct and in the right place and an original photo would do that for me to answer my questions.Thanks for any help you can give me,
Derk.
