Belgian Cegesoma archive.

It's a bit of a clunky site, isn't it ? Gives different search results in different languages. I tried "Britse" and "pantser" which gave some interesting pictures. I had a fleeting glimpse of a colour photo as a page heading showing rows of Morris Commercials and Bedfords in, I think, De Panne but I can't find it again !

I think that I'll have to go and have a look in person preferably by train because it says parking spaces are limited and "not without risk"

So did I , thought "Rich would like this one", then never saw it again.
Just found it, lots of Italy pics for some reason too.
Rich, would you say the Bedford on the right has crossed keys of 2nd Div?

Yesterday, I found an amazing resource: CEGESOMA

Welcome to the CEGES-SOMA The Centre for Historical Research and Documentation on War and Contemporary Society is a public federal research institution which collects documentation and carries out research on the wars and conflicts of the twentieth century and their impact on Belgium.
Since 1969, the Centre collects archives, books, periodicals, newspapers, photographs, interviews, posters and leaflets. This documentation is accessible through the Pallas integrated information system and can be consulted in the reading room of the monumental buildings at the Square de l’Aviation in Brussels.

I hope if this site is not posted in other place of this Forum......
