Aussy In Service Pic

Have not seen this before, but an interesting selection of in service Aussy vehicles.
Best to use the link as the quality is not terrific and the resizing would not help.

"Equipment used by Your Army Today" I'm guessing late 50's ealy 60's. When did the ACCO arrive? Left to right:
CMP, Champ, Weapons display (Bazooka, Owen, SLR, Bren, Mortar + kit) MP M'cycle, ACCO, Ferret, Bofors, Humber One ton.

This maybe something to do with the end of National Service, start of CMF??

Half way there for a re-creation, think the weapons display may be near impossible these days though.

He he... The MP's legs are so skinny that he doesn't fill his leather Light Horse Pattern leggings! I thought Cherry Berrys were supposed to be big burly blokes?

Hi Ho Local Chap.

Some of us MP's looked OK, Who knows I might have come accross you during your service.

Cheers

Been trying to workout if the Blitz is a tractor/trailer unit, towing the display. Don't know if we actually used them here, if we did it may be the reason for it still being in service. Once set up it may have kept on for longer than normal?
MP must have been braver than the rest of the crew, all their legs are well hidden...
