Here are a couple of images for our Canadian friends. Some driver, some crew! (Get in the back Corporal Smith, I'm driving!) The armlet is the type that was worn that day.

The caption has Gen Burns initials wrong. They are ELM not EML as stated in the caption.

The Champ went down in British automotive history as being the "Jeep designed by a committee".
