Hello Lammert,

I think you have seen this picture already:

Caption: "CWAC woman truck driver, enters a Canadian Army base in the summer of 1944. She drives a Royal Canadian Army Service Corps truck.The gate keeper wears a RP armband for Regimental Police, properly called Regimental Provost Staff in the United Kingdom."
Source: Library and Archives Canada

HTH,
Hanno

Based on the decal on the windshield, I suggest the photo may have been taken in Ontario (or within driving distance of Ontario). The decal resembles that used by Ontario to extend 1943 license plates rather than issuing 1944 plates.

The photograph was definitely taken in Canada. One of the key details is that the summer KD uniform was not authorized or issued for wear in the UK.
