Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I have some info on the Truck, 3-ton, 6x6, Crash Tender (Ford/Marmon-Herrington MM5-6) used by the RCAF in Canada on my Marmon-Herrington website.

I have not been able to find anything for markings as yet. Possibly if you post a question on one of those sites you will be able to find something.

Hi Jeff;

Its not a very good photo, its from a 1947 dated publication I have, showing members of the Canadian Fire Services on parade in London, England, sometime in 1940. It does not show up in this posted image, but there is some type of 'regimental shoulder flash', on their jacket shoulders, possibly baring the title 'Canadian Fire Services' or 'Fire Services Canada'. I'll see if I can being it up a bit.

Cheers
