I have photos of RAF Mountain Rescue Humber Ambulances and instead of the B/11 type marking they have a M and number. Does this stand for Maintenance Unit or was there a Maritime Command before it was Coastal Command?
Perhaps it stands for Middle East Command? Some of these ambulance were in sand colour having returned from N Africa as MR was formed in 1943. One ambulance in sand has what looks like red and white stripes across roof perhaps with a red cross on one of the white bands. . Was this a desert marking? The sand colour was initially used in UK. perhaps until they got around to repainting but it must have been some time judging form the amount of photos that exist. .
Also what to the numbers on the yellow discs signify/
Thanks guys
