    One more photo, might be a number on back of jeep above xxxxx . could it be XII VII on the first photo. I wonder if it could be a RA unit as i have a photo of 2 jeeps towing a 25 pdr.

    Yes, agreed with Idler. 44th Airborne Division (India). Sadly, I think the badge used to illustrate is a modern dud - this one is the IWM's version.

    Yes, the one I linked was a repro on eBay. It was simply the first one that came up on Google, I'm not out of pocket!

    It all depends on the date of the photo.
