JohnC Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Hello, a newbie here. This is our 1943 GPW wearing the colours of the Canadian South Saskatchewan Regiment. Soldiers of the SSRs befriended our family when they were billeted in our village during the months up to D-Day, and corresponded for many years afterwards. The Elgins were also in the village, Hartley Wintney. The Jeep is parked in front of the Womens' Institute hut, which was the soldiers' canteen. Our gran worked there as a cook. Posted today in honour of the SSRs and all Canadian servicemen. John 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnC Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 Thank you. I'm sure I will have plenty of occasions to consult the forum's experts, and hopefully be able to give something back of my own experiences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
