Found the attached when doing a 'trawl' though the NZ National Archives site this afternoon!
Taken on the day that the NZ troops entered Trieste in May, 1945. Looks like a Ford CMP with a No.11 cab made it through the war in Italy! Ref: DA-08388 New Zealand Infantry men dismounting from their trucks at the Albergo Excelsior, a hotel in Trieste, Italy. Photographed by George Kaye on the 4th of May 1945. NZ National Archives Collection. Cheers, Pete M. |

The vehicle on the right of the pic above looks like an Australian Ford-Marmon Herrington Artillery Tractor No 3 or 3A, but it has a hard cab which I have not seen before. Any comments?

Thank you so much Hanno!!!
My 76 year old eyes are not that good anymore as well the photo was a bit out of focus. I came to the same conclusion but was having trouble finding a good photo of a Dodge with the roof hatch (they apparently came with and without the hatch). I will have to go with this one. Bill

But if you go to 4:08 you may see a silhouette of something close to Howard's heart!
