Does anybody know if this is true?

Leon,

Great picture! Where did it come from and where & when was it taken?

It is a Dodge WK-60 as Cliff pointed out. The list provided by Rogier Peeters lists Dodge 3-ton trucks, and it is assumed these were D60L trucks. But since the WK-60 was classified as a 3 ton 6x4 Breakdown Gantry truck, it could have fitted this list of vehicles. Maybe Rogier will chime in later.

Anyway, the whole atmosphere points towards PIB too, I doubt if British or Canadian troops were allowed to dress up their vehicles like this one, nor would they no longer use this somewhat outdated type of vehicle.

HTH,
Hanno
