The photo that I posted was from the operations on the Scheldt Estuary in October 1944, and not the Rhine crossing in March 1945.I don't think that the Armoured Regiments of 33rd Armoured Brigade were yet part of 79th Armoured Division in October 1944. It is my understanding that they only became part of the 79th, and re-equipped with Buffalos just before the Rhine crossing.
Kevin’s first suggesting, 11th RTR is probably correct. They did serve in the Scheldt. Below is a photo of a LVT II from 11th RTR.
