'A Great Risk in a good cause' I learned the Australians used CMPs as well.
Photo caption: "Transport vehicles passing through the village of Perdik during the withdrawal from Vevi, 13 April 1941."
Looks like an 11 Cab 15-cwt with 2B1 body. But Ford or Chev?
Thanks,

Addition: later I found this pic at the AWM as well: "ID Number: 007649; Summary: GREECE, 1941-04-13. TRANSPORT PASSING THROUGH THE VILLAGE OF PERDIKA DURING THE WITHDRAWAL FROM THE MONASTIER GAP. NOTE: IN SPITE OF THE INSISTENCE DURING TRAINING TO THE DISPERSAL OF VEHICLES DURING CONVOY, LITTLE ATTENTION WAS PAID TO THIS IMPORTANT FACTOR ALTHOUGH, DURING THIS PERIOD, THE GERMAN AIR FORCE WAS PARTICULARLY ACTIVE ALONG THE ROADS."
