Just checked in Recovery by Brian Baxter where he says "...a run of AEC Matadors fitted with jibs talen from American built Hyster workshop cranes, one of these remaining in service into the 1950s in Sudan."
Shall we start another thread on how many Matadors constitutes a "run" :  :Noel

F8
Love those F8s, especially the one with the Fortress nose.
The Korea one will be a C60X.

Korea I'd guess. The 2 Chaffey tanks would be the give-away as although the Yanks had them in 1944 in Europe I don't think that there were any in the Islands with the Aussies.
The first M-24s reached American armored units in November 1944 and served throughout the European theater until the end of the war. British forces also received the new M-24, although in nowhere near the numbers of either the M-3 or M-5, and named it after General Adna R. Chaffee, the first commander of the United States armored forces. The United States subsequently adopted the name. (Thanks Google).

Keith, Both F8 photos are of the same vehicle, you can see the nose cone in the top photo as well. Rick.
