Bedford wartime models

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

Thanks Les. I am trying to prove that OX chassis were available to authorised users such as NAAFI, Churchy Army, Salvation Army, et al as well as the OW models. However I cannot tell the difference between an OWS and an OXC!

While there are certainly photographs of Bedford trucks in use by these organizations I'd like to see, if it exists the connection to chassis being available to authorized users. Here's a photo from circa mid 1943. I have no idea why it is uploading inverted...
