As likely part of camouflage
Hi Jan
As likely it was part of camouflage of the special nature of the truck, there was various efforts to make special use trucks wreckers, tankers look like regular general service trucks. Logic being if I'm going to fire on a convoy pick the one that is different. In some photos of wreckers you will see frame work over the booms to hold the canvas all the way back to make them really look like covered GS trucks. Cheers Phil
