Ahh, Michael, your intimate knowledge of things van-like has saved our friend Lionel from the unadulterated joy of looking up the weight class in AWM126, which states V18220 is indeed a 1 ton Chev. (Being typed when Tony posted his last post with the weight class.)

The vehicle left Australia aboard the transport Chios around 28 June 1941 (the shipping dates in AWM126 can be a bit rubbery.)

The 88 unit sign white/blue with 88 in red numerals, is the 2/7th Aust Field Regiment Signals Section, then serving as part of 9th Aust Infantry Division (the platypus over the boomerang on the upper part of the plate).

Mike
