Early CMPs in NW Europe

[Hanno Spoelstra]

Here's a nice pic I found recently in a book on the city of Rotterdam during WW2. It shows the headquarters of a Canadian Army unit set up at the Heemraadssingel, Rotterdam, May 1945.

If you look closely you will see a myriad of interesting vehicles: C8A's (HUW?), Bedford QL, Cab 13 15-cwt, Chevrolet K-51 Panel Van, and two Cab 11 or 12 15-cwt's (one water tanker), showing those early CMPs did soldier on during the NW Europe campaign.
