I typed in Malayan Campaign, this was the only image I found.

Looks like a Compressor C8 truck.
I think these are factory photos.

There is one known original Morris Commercial C8 GS picture known to me, also published on my website.



This picture was taken by a Dutch volunteer (Willem Timmer) undergoing commando training in Scotland around the end of 1944 / beginning of 1945.

And offcourse my own early C8 :-)



Rgds.
