N.Z. VEHICLES IN EGYPT
FORMER TRADE DELIVERIES Anything from home always •arouses friendly interest on the part -of Ncav Zealand troops serving with, the forces in the Middle East. For this reason they were especially interested recently to see trada vehicles from Ncav Zealand still bearing the marks of their previous owners make their appearance in the here. To see motor transport paint--<ed in greens or reds In marked contrast to the sombre colours used by the Army immediately suggested something unusual, and to find that New Zealand "civilian" lorries had .joined the N.Z.E.F. overseas! was a pleasant surprise. The fact that at least one bore the signs of a wellknown brewery may have had something to do with this.
