The Sexton GPO is listed in Chamberlain and Ellis as followers:

“Sexton GPO: Introduced in late 1943 (the prototype was designated “G” vehicle), this was a Sexton with gun removed and extra equipment added for gun position officers (GPO) of Sexton batteries. It was fitted with extra radio, map tables, extra telephone cables, and an extra Tannoy unit.”

There is also a film clip showing the Sexton GPO. I think that it is contained on the video “A War of Their Own” produced by the War Amps. It is in the section where they are describing the 8th Field Regt (SP) RCA of 5CAD, and shows the final parade of the unit at the end of the war in Holland.
