The first number is a Bedford QLD 3 ton 4x4 GS truck, I thought the number was familiar, it is from the same contract as my own one. When we tried to trace the original number (it had been transfered to the Danish forces after the war), it was found that the chassis numbers and WD numbers were not in sequence, so we checked through the records to find an "average" number within 100 approx. Looking at photocopies of the army records, I see that the number previous to one you quote, is shown, L4912066.
Sorry cannot help on the second number, it appears to be a Canadian truck. Do you have a photograph of the incident as you know the numbers?
