Hi Mike;
If it were either of No. 1 Corps and Army Troops Sub-Park, R.C.O.C. or No. 2 Corps and Army Troops Sub-Park, R.C.O.C. there would be a white bar visible above the AoS marking

Hi Hanno;
I would have to say that the vehicle belongs to the West Nova Scotia Regiment (3rd Inf Bde/1st Inf Div).
In May 1945 the South Saskatchewan Regiment (6th Inf Bde/2nd Inf Div) were operating within Germany (Oldenburg area) and the North Nova Scotia Highlanders (9th Inf Bde/3rd Inf Div) were also operating within Germany, in the Leer-Veenhusen-Terborg area.
The West Nova Scotia Regiment was on the northern flank of the 1st Corps' front along the 'Grebbe Line' and after the cease-fire advanced into 'Western Holland' along with the rest of the 1st Corps.
Thats my thoughts on the subject.
Cheers
