Hi Guys,

Thank you for the replies so far. Unfortunately, It looks like I am mistaking. Now I have enlarged the picture, it looks like a 15 cwt truck with General Service body to me, allthough I still have some doubts looking at ths side of the body..

You can see the picture in this post.

The picture was taken in Port-en-Bessin, Normandy, some weeks after D-day. Port-en-Bessin was one of the Harbors for the PLUTO fuel supply project. Later, the village also became a movie-set for "the Longest day".


The picture source: Imperial War Museum, published in After The Battle.
