AMERICAN FIELD SERVICE C30 AMBULANCE - INDIA-BURMA 1944-45.
The American Field Service served in India and Burma in 1944-45 alongside British and Indian troops of 14th Army. Can anyone tell me the type and version/model of the CMP ambulances they were using? They are 30 cwt - possibly C30. The Ambulances are not the standard hard bodied C60 version used in Italy and North-West Europe, but seem to be canvas sided. Are these an "Indian-pattern" vehicle?

I believe these are "
Ambulance Indian Army Type (Aust) No. 1". Could they have been built in India as well?
"Three AFS drivers (Mackey, Gilbert and Ferguson) with soldiers of the Indian Army, Burma, 1944."
