Rick W Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 Are Tank museum photos available online or do you have to do some footwork? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I booked a meeting and went down there. Usual trouble, so many pictures and bits of paper, so few people to sort and archive. Most musuems have about three times the amount in storage they have on display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick W Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 Thats the first pic of a Morris Ive seen that hasnt been taken on the mainland. Any more pics/info Tony? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 (edited) It was actually taken in St Helier Jersey in 1945. The vehicle was one that had been used by the German forces. The Liberation force only brought about 30% of vehicles they needed the rest were taken from the occupiers. A lot of 'Requistioned' (Read stolen) vehicles were still there, but many private cars, especially Jaguars and a Buick, wee sent to France in 1941. Have a look through the photos here http://www.thisisjersey.co.uk/hmd/ Edited July 12, 2008 by Tony B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

les freathy Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 First time up for me and not sure how to post a photo so its trial and error for the moment, if it works this is a shot of a Morris CS11/30 30cwt RAF pattern GS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
79x100 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hello Les. Nice to see you here. There are a number of MLU ers on the forum. Here's a Time Life picture with what I assume are also 11/30s in the foreground and presumably a variation of Caunter Scheme camouflage ?
