Default Glens Association

Hi Terry,
I tried writing to the Glens Museum to get some details on the vehicle you posted on here, but the address given is no longer working. Do you have a current email for them?
Thanks
Gord

Default Westminster Regiment (Motor)

those are the Correct markings for the Westminster Regiment (Motor) during ww2.
The Regiment was part of the 5th Canadian Armoured Division during the war.
Hofmeisters mighty Maroon Machine. as a Mechanized infantry regiment.

Check out Canadian soldiers.com for vehicle marking info.

Default Yes I know that ...

Yes I know the markings are correct as has already been stated.
I am looking for confirmation of the census number and the overall configuration and colour scheme.
