Default T16 t-94950

T16 T94950 with an interesting field modification. This photo was made during the Memorial D-Day Parade at the Potterstraat street in Utrecht in June 1945. All the men and their equipment were clearly polished up for this event. During wartime service no doubt the rack fitted on the front glacis would be stowed to the brim with the crew's belongings.

If I identintified this correctly, this T16 belonged to The Highland Light Infantry of Canada (white 67 on brown) of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division (gold maple leaf on French-grey) - ref. https://canadiansoldiers.com/vehicle...antryunits.htm
