Just because its in print, doesn't make it true. Try reading the "Carrier" section under "Armour" on "WW2 Talk" What a lot of B.S!!

Hi All
Loved the movie. I have a copy in my "War" movie collection, Good ending, not what was expected. I also found the cranking uphill bit very interesting. Not bad for an old Black and White film. Cheers Little Jo

The side view of the four-wheel drive vehicle clearly shows that it was not a CMP system...it looks K9, or so we have agreed I thought before on this site. I do wonder if a CMP axle might have been used as well but my thought is that unless it was an ex-wartime 'spare' lying around, where did they get it from? CMPs must have long-gone from the Mid-East by then.

The main value for me is in the other listings. Although the information thread is locked, the administrator at WW2talk has added a separate thread for comments and corrections. I'm sure it would be appreciated if you or others felt able to correct any 'howlers'. There are many people with an interest in the period who would feel intimidated by a site such as this, populated as it is mainly by vehicle owners and restorers. They do a great job there helping casual enquirers deal with the (mainly British) wartime service of their ancestors and other similar projects. Any help from those who really know the vehicles would undoubtedly be appreciated.
