crew positions
Hello Stefan,
To answer your question i'll add a quote from "The gunners at arnhem"
The 17 pounder, being longer and heavier, was carried in the lager hamilcar glider together with its towing vehicle, a specially adapted Morris Commercial which carried the gun detachment and the ammunition consisting of twenty armour piercing and ten sabot rounds per gun. Each troop commander and one member of each gun team dropped by parachute with the infantry unit to which they were attached so that they would arrive at their RV before the guns were unloaded from the gliders.
Maybe Rob van Meel can tell us more about the positions of the soldiers on the truck?
