CMP history - in Dutch
For our Dutch readers, I would like to point out a series of articles on the CMP series of trucks, including their use in the Royal Netherlands Army after WW2:
http://www.voortt.nl/pagina4.html Part 1: http://www.voortt.nl/AFL%2015%20-%20...20deel%201.pdf Part 2: http://www.voortt.nl/AFL%2016%20-%20...20deel%202.pdf Part 3: http://www.voortt.nl/AFL%2017%20-%20...20deel%203.pdf Part 3 contains this interesting picture of a C15 which collided with a motorcycle in Delft, 1946. It looks like the Chevrolet came straight out of the vehicle dumps.

I wonder if the motorcycle was a surplus military item as well?

Intertesting that pt3 lists the KL welding lorry as being a Chevrolet model as well as there being a Ford model (uto, Vracht 3/4 ton, 4x4, C15A, m/generatorinstallatie [Chevrolet]
I can only imagine the difficulty that a chev 216 would have trying to move a truck that heavy. |
