No Kangaroos there...
 
... I don't think. The guy on the far left has an Artillery Corps badge on. If this picture of General Volkes was taken in 1944, it would predate the kangaroo badge by many months. If there were some gunners here who eventually became kangaroo drivers they would not be identifiable as such.

Sorry, good try though. :)

Hi again, I went back and skimmed a little down the page ... and am surprized (and happy) to see that so much information was added. I see room for editing to correct or add information if you're a member :)

I wonder who has been adding to the page??? ANyone from MLU? :)

:salute:

Thanks a lot Bill, and for being so quick too :) I did wonder about timing ... and just knew someone in here would know ;) It's always worth a shot!
