Ford F60L with Triple (and Quad) Polsten AA guns

[Alex van de Wetering]

I came across these pictures on the "Archief Eemland" website, the city archives of Amersfoort.

First picture was taken on 4 june 1945, during a demonstration of Canadian military equipment. On the left you can see two Anti-aircraft CMP's, one with Bofors 40mm and one with quad Polsten.

The second picture is probably the same vehicle on it's way to the demo.

All nicely done up with white accents - reminds me of the "whitewall" tyres the Soviets used on their parade vehicles.

Thanks Alex!
