Excellent shot, but is it foreground or background?

Here is a rather rare photo. It was taken during the Greek Civil war 1946-49, and shows members of the Hellenic (National) Army at a brake during operations against the communist guerillas, somewhere at central Greece. All of them are dressed with british BD uniforms, pat 37. At the backstage a Chev or a Ford.

Αt the current issue of the MILITARY MACHINES/Dec2011 we can find a fine photo collection of wartime German vehicles in Athens-Greece provided by James Payne.

I post one of them below, and I think it's a C15 behind the Krupp-Potze.



The sign on the building says (ΕΡΜΗΣ) "ΗΕRMES, Greek Insurance Company, Headquaters", buiding wich survived the War.

Apologies for the poor quality:

Comes this little gem.

Looks like the same Cab 12 as in the first shot with the Humber
