T16 with "Dutch Stowage"
Canadian troops entering Amsterdam, 8 May 1945. Here's a T16 Universal Carrier at the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal street. Many exuberant civilians are hitching a ride.
For that "Then & Now" effect, I added a Google screenshot view of the same spot today: Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal nr. 162. OSIM00001005370_resized.jpg Screenshot_2020-03-31 Google Maps.jpg Source: https://archief.amsterdam/beeldbank/...3-8e49c84eb9ae
