I am reliably informed by a freind who is a real anorak the picture is of a
hybrid vehicle made from captured German vehicles and mounted on a GMC CCKW
chassis to relieve the boredom of a group of troops in immediate post war
Germany. He recalls there are several other photos of the same group of
vehicles, possibly in Bavaria in 1945/6

So I guess with the enthusiasm you guys have for for Gun Trucks, this beat
the lot hands down
