Default WW2 Colour Shots of CMPs

Fo any colour photos of WW2 CMPs exist please? Sounds a ridiculous question, but the IWM online catalogue has none. just a couple of Austin K2/Y ambulances and a I think a 3-ton Dodge in May 1945.

David, one that springs to mind is the picture showing a 3-Ton Derrick Truck at a captured ordnance dump in Normandy, 1944. See Archives Normandie for a large size scan.

HTH,
Hanno

Hi David,

Earlier this year the CBC ran a great 3 part series called "Canada's War in Colour". Here is the link to their website:

Here's a carrier. The files have the IWM number still if you want higher resolution from them.
