WWII Vehicle Markings
Rob:
Try Mike Dorosh's excellent website: http://www.canadiansoldiers.com/ Click on 'vehicles' and then select the sub menu heading vehicle markings for a superb explanation of what, where and when the markings were applied. Mike

Please, we try to deal with specifics here. Vague information such as yours is of little use. PS. Re: Hooded carrier (see thread - I have no idea how to link to it). I have 8 views of this beast. Let me know if you need any for your project. I may have other photos of interest to you. Clive

Speaking of " that project ", how is it coming? A great number of stockings remained unstuffed again this Christmas in want of your book. I am not sure how much longer I can be good whilst I wait ... Stewart |

Clive I would be interested in that carrier photo/s with the roof! Its amazing and I laughed at the fact there are no seat backs, presumably so the crew could slide back and get lower! The blood stains on the roof next to the rubber head pads worried me! I also think this was an attempt to run a carrier along the seabed after they tried to float them, in case they were put ashore too soon!! Have been reading posts regularly if not contributing much!, but in the words of Freddy "I'm back"!!! Nigel
