    This pass was issued to a British soldier to allow entry to the docks with his Humber Utility vehicle. It was issued on 17th June 1945 for a 2 day period. HU 333 [ Humber Utility ] Would that be a Humber box and 333 load number? Any info on this pass would be welcome.
    Thanks for any help.

    Found some info in my Movement Control Instructions book. V is the code for Vehicles and BK is the code for Ostend . Types of ship used were MT ships and staff cars by train ferries by special arrangements.
