@ Bill

I do not have much information about the type of truck we are looking for. Sadly, I was not there - I would have pictures, which would be more accurate for an identification...

All I can say is, the truck should not be younger than 1942.

I know, the LRDG has used MARMON HERRINGTON as well within their HEAVY SECTION to run the supply line from WADI HALFA to KOUFRA. However, the HEAVY SECTION used the big ones. The one on the picture seems to be a smaller truck.

What gives an indication to the LRDG are the brackets on the mudguards (to hold the sand-ladders).

On the other side, as far as I know, the LRDG did not use MARMON HERRINGTONS as patrol-vehicles...

Quiet confusing, I know...
