This is probably a US made half-track vehicle adapted for use by FOB personnel.

C/3 Combined Operations Bombardment Unit - HMS Pongo photo
My (late) father Herbert "Tony" Hawes is in a beret with his left hand on his left knee in the 2nd row (ie one back from the front row) 4th man in from the right. I know very little of the story of which this photo forms part. I think they went to Normandy. Can anyone please enlighten me? [email protected]
