47 Serial Number
That is an interesting photograph and I am glad that you posted it.
Yes, when part of 5th Canadian Armoured Division the RCD's did use a white 47 on a black square.
While serving with the 1st Canadian Corps in Italy I have them recorded as being assigned a white 45 on a green over blue square.
Now there is a chance that for a short time from when they were reassigned from 5 Div to 1 Corps that the RCD's still retained the 47.
