ANZAC OOB15 v.8.1 - few observations
2 Mk VIc - "c" variant used only from 3/39 by Great Britain, I don't know since when by Australians (in North Africa only?)
8 M11/39 - much better proper photo is 3659
169-173,175 Patrol - photo shows Bren section, while it has no Bren
290,291 Humber Scout I,II - Mk. I was produced only from early 1943, and Mk II from 1944, according to J. Magnuski's book and Czech "Army Wheels in Detail Humber Mk.I,II Scout Car".
However, Mk II didn't differ in armour, only mechanical changes - both had 14 mm in front and sides, 12mm rear.
297 M-H II MG - photo is Mk. III, proper is 12557. They were manufactured in South Africa from 1940-41 only, I don't know since when they were used by Australians, but I assume, that they got them in North Africa, no sooner than 3/41, like the British. Ending date might be extended then (now5/41)
298 M-H II ATR - photo should be ordinary 12557, not canon-armed. Same notes as for usage.
299 M-H II 2pdr - same notes as for usage - maybe gun conversions appeared even later.
350 Ford GPA Amphib - I don't recall any photo of MG-armed GPA.
368 3 pdr Gun Empl - phot isn't 3pdr (rather 3in) - maybe Finnish 23569 picture.
431 Machinegun Sec - photo is Bren, it should be rather Vickers
