British M3A1 Scout Car ambulance
Hanno
Thanks for that pic, better than the one in the George Forty book I have.
The Medical M3 White Scout with stretchers has been modified by removal of the gun ring and 2 large hinges added at the rear. So I'm sure the 2 piece rear plate could fold down too - so that is how they got the stretchers out !
It is like another (NON - MEDICAL version) in Normandy which had a normal canvas roof on. That one had 3 triangular-shaped hinges so I'm sure the 2 piece rear plate could fold down too. I think it's in the Concord book 'Tanks In Normandy'.
If anyone needs British stretcher measurements and a rough drawing I can send them to you.
Regards
Andrew
