CMPs in Eritrea, 1941
These CMPs are with 41 Battery of the 15th Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment, Royal Artillery - the Manx Regiment - in Eritrea (Ethiopia) in early 1941.
The first one was in the background of a photo but if I'd posted the whole thing its name "Anita" and census number would have been illegible. They show some good examples of camouflage. The Regiment used CMP vehicles throughout the war.
