Normandy was excellent, but more on that later.
Here is a start regarding CMP's: 1st picture: Two HUPS on Omaha Beach, Dog green, June 4th. One from Norway (?) and one from Belgium 2nd picture: Chevrolet LAAT from MLU member Keith Orpin on the Etreham campsite....What a beautiful truck and a great attention to detail.....bumper jewels, overflow tank with nice badges, great canvas....nice padlocks....just terrific. Didn't have the chance to meet Keith though. 3rd and 4th: Very nice Ford Derrick seen at Pegasus museum on June 5th. The truck seems to be from Switzerland...Chris, do you know the owner? I loved the wooden rear plate hiding the camping interior. 5th: Another terrific truck and another forum member, Jim Sewell's Sigvan on the Etreham campsite. Alex

That body is "home made". The chassis is an F60S, as far as I could tell. The last picture in the Dutch section shows a C60L with "crew cab". - Hanno

Thanks for posting
Just a quick thanks to all who took pictures and to those who shared them.
Looks like the weather was better this year than in some past years. Cheers

To those that have photos of MLU members vehicles at this event don't forget I need (ASAP) some more photos for the 2010 MLU calendar.
Sorry but I have to say that if I do not get enough photos by August 30 at the latest I will not produce it due to other commitments
