I am looking for the following:

1) Contemporary photos of the S.A.S. jeep used in NW Europe. With particular details of armament, stowage and configuration....

2) Any decent websites which cover this variant

Thanks, Jim

You can have a go at the website in this link from ML, I tried a couple of times today without any luck.

And there's also Roger Ford's book 'Fire from the forest: The SAS Brigade in France 1944' new in paperback. Has 3-4 photos of jeeps. This one was specially interesting to me as I was working in the Morvan earlier this year and had been to several of the places mentioned in the book.
