A picture just for interest. CMP's of the 40th Infantry Division (I Think!) crossing a river on their way to Rangoon.

The CMP has many different forms and little mentioned on here. Interesting change of headlights though. Why was that?

Nice pic. Interesting to see bridge plate over headlight. Can anyone shed light on the numbers on the engine cover?

[Richard Farrant]

dont know .but here is another one for you !

 

 

These two CMP trucks are from the Danish army and would have been transfered to them after the War. The second one has US type light units on the front mudguards, the gun ring mount would be US origin also. My own Bedford also came from Denmark and had US carbine holders, head and side lamps etc. Even a US Chevrolet carb, and the rear lamps were German Notek.
