Default je maintiendrai

That's the Dutch coat of arms, indeed. The French words "Je maintiendrai" mean something like: I will maintain myself/ my position.

You certainly have a rare beast, Chris!

I guess most guns were never delivered in time to participate in the defence of the Dutch East Iidies in early 1942, so the majority must have remained in the US, where they were sold or scrapped?

I am very interested to find out more on these guns as wel as the vehicles sold by the same company. PLease keep us informed.

It looks like the Dutch gun is somewhat larger and longer than the M3. The shield looks better than the tinier US one, I think.

Regards, Nuyt
