I was thinking it was something French - the car that is.

The soldier actually looks like he's leaning in to coo at the baby, just steadying the girl or himself as he does.

Anyone up these Fritzies and where they may be and what sort of car?

I have some photos a friend just sent me, of a relative by marriage who was a high ranking officer with RCASC with 1st Canadian Div in Italy and later in U.K., I think at Canadian Army HQ.

I'll ask if it's OK to post them here for vehicle and unit ID - there are some vehicles, the only ones with visible markings are this officer's Jeep and a motorcycle on display at a bond drive (hanging from a wrecker's derrick).

There's one shot that involves an Italian carbinieri, and a mixture of Canadian and Italian military and civilians, but we have no idea what's going in the pic - fascinating tableau. There might have been an accident or something. there's a 15cwt, a Jeep and another mystery vehicle almost obscured in the shot - maybe a GMC or a Mack.
