Jeeps in RCN and RCAF service

[Hanno Spoelstra]

I know it is not a wartime photo. But you may be interested to see this Canadian Navy Jeep, as info on Jeeps in RCN service is so rare.

It looks this is a bog standard CJ-3A Universal Jeep, shiny paint and all. Big question: which colour would they have chosen from the catalogue? Ref. https://www.kaiserwillys.com/about_w..._history_specs

A Jeep that was destroyed during a 52 degree roll while HMCS Crusader was sailing to Hong Kong, 25 January 1954
