Three Canadians just arrived the Deventer policestation in the town centre. Note the right soldier risking his private parts by wearing a Mills handgrenade on his belt.

Robert;

These soldiers are probably from either No. 13 or No. 14 Platoon of "C" Company under Lt. W.K. Wardroper, who cleared the town centre. I've attached an image of the 1st Battalion, Canadian Scottish Regiment shoulder title.

Cheers
