In post #3, it does not appear to be an International half track pulling the limber and 17 Pdr. Can anyone confirm?

Default Internationl halftrack

Looks like an International to me as the front mudguards are wrong for a White.

Good eye Chris. I was looking for the rounded rear corners. My old eyes could not make out if the front fenders were skirted or not.

Bruce, bringing this back to your question, I believe the sigs tac sign was common to all types of RCA regiments.

Default Sigs vehs tac signs

I'd go along with Bill. The RCA was pretty standardised on such matters although there is some variation in Ack-Ack markings. Ubique! Mike
