Many thanks.


Here's a photo of a Valentine Bridgelayer with a Ram Badger in the background, the comment with this photo is on the photo (demonstration by Bridgelayer).
As far as i know 5th. Can. Armd. Div. demonstrated their tools of the trade after the war ended, this photo was taken at the Ossenmarkt (Oxmarket) in Groningen.
The picture is scanned from a book called: 32 authentieke foto's van de bevrijding van Groningen (32 authentic photo's of the Groningen Liberation).
N.V. Foresta 1970 Groningen, no ISBN available.

Hope it's of any use, Cheers Ronald.

Ronald's link to the picture was dead, but I was able to find the photo in an online archive:
