Canadian Staghound Armored Car, ..possibly 12th Manitoba Dragoons,

Staghound armored car was heavy, 14 tons, crew of 5, armament was a 37mm cannon, and 2 browning mg., maximum speed was 55 mph from its 2 GMC 270 cu.in. gas engine, also a GM Hydramatic tranny


The Staghound was well like by Canadian recce units
 
Poor bastards. Probably from someplace warm, with any number of stunning brunettes and plenty of good wine. And now that asscrack Mussolini has sent them to the frozen butthole of the world to live on 400 calories a day. No fires allowed, as they draw arty. Clothes largely inadequate. Haven't seen hot water in a month. Plenty of lice in the coats, blankets, and armpits. Your nearest "allies" are a bunch of surly, half-frozen Germans.

An altogether uncivilized situation.

The dude on the right looks about ready to just hang it up.

Those guys sitting behind that machine gun suffered from cold, hunger, lice, $h!ts, artillery fire, and several other disadvantages for months on end. Fighting in the Eastern Front was horrible for everybody.
 
Hey Gunnutz !! My right mouse button on my pc is broken so I can't post a picture :( I will post one tomorrow at work :) So if anyone has one to post today to fill the gap that would be great :)

Cheers
