Thanks as always for your incredible input. I would be honoured to meet you and perhaps Dirk in due course when we get out over to the Netherlands in our new Honda.

David, it would be my pleasure to meet you and your wife. My input into this forum is nowhere near what you as an Automotive and Military Historian are digging up from archives. There is still a lot to learn from you, and it is your inquisitive mind that triggers me to dig into my meagre references.

AMENDMENT HERE: the C291QH was the Royal Engineers' FAT-based truck chassis as used in India, but I seem to remember that it was thought that the 1942 3-ton FAT chassis for Australia was the same model, so can I correct that to C291QH please?

"the C291QH was the Royal Engineers' FAT-based truck chassis as used in India"?!? Please elaborate!
All I know is what the late Peter Ford told me: "...C291QR RE vehicles being sent to India in 1943 - I don't know what the R types were".
