Wim,


The archives show two or three scout cars parked on the same "Grote markt". One seems to show a "45", which can also be seen on some of the Chev's as well. Given Mark's reaction about the defrocked Priest. The Humbers could be part of the Canadian Armoured Corps, 29th Armoured Reconnaissance Reg., 4th Canadian Armoured Division.

Here is one of the other (?) Humbers, with the "45" just behind the german POW. The Stuarts also have a "45" on the front armour.

Is that a Canadian 10cwt trailer in the background?

Hi Alex;

The vehicles parked on the 'Grote markt', do indeed belong to the 29th Canadian Armoured Reconnaissance Regiment (The South Alberta Regiment), C.A.C. (RHQ Troop and Recce Troop), of the 4th Canadian Armoured Division.

Cheers
