Freely obtained German Leicas were the most popular!

Kodak Box Brownies were the most widely used. Popular from the 20's onwards, the Box Brownie was made in the US, England, Canada and Australia in huge numbers. See just some of the various types HERE.

From the photos I found on the Library and Archives of Canada site the Canadian military seems to favour the Anniversary Speed Graphic camera.
