Newton 6 inch mortar truck mounted
Permalink   


I have read about units mounting the 6 inch Newton mortar in the back of lorries toward the end of the war. Does anyone have any pictures of this?

Thansk,
Chris

The Canadians certainly did this in at least 3 cases but I've never found a photo. The Americans developed a special Ford T with a Stokes (4 inch?) on the back but these were too late to see service - again I've never found a photo  - and I've certainly searched!
