Can I just add that # 11 and # 12 Cab CMPs that were issued to the AIF initially were it now seems, paid for by summer 1941 between the Australian and British Governments. Thus although they were to British contract or initialy purchased by London, they were shipped to the Mid-East and then issued as I said to the AIF and NZEF and Indian Army as well as the Eighth Army. Those trucks purchased after the issue to the AIF were shipped to Australia in due course, and thence in some cases to the Pacific campaign.
