Just a few observations.......

..if this is before the Normandy invasion..... it would have taken months to move that many vehicles...even just to park them in such neat rows.....

How come there seems to be no attempts to hide them.... camouflage, etc...?
....nor any attempts to park them further apart to prevent aircraft straffing..

Although stored ouside in the beautiful English Spring weather most of the vehicles do not have the side windows installed.....and many have missing mirrors.

The size of such a dump.... and possibly others existed...... not being noticed by the Germans is unbelievable......


A final Observation..........The mix of vehicles...cab 11/12 and 13..... never realized that so many early models cab 11/12 were used in the invasion.... I always assumed that they had been issued all new equipment which precluded older cab 11/12.

If I ever get my time machine working....guess where I an headed....
