Here the 2 pre-Normandy pictures:

Image

Another one taken in the UK on a training excersize, but this is unconfirmed

Image

This one is definetively in the UK, with British troops an markings, training to load in a Horsa glider, the brits took 2 CA-1's to Arnhem, but one glider never made it, will look up the story, I knew the glider pilot who pilotted the glider with the Clark to Arnhem, and drove it to the HQ in Oosterbeek, they never even used it!!

Image

Here fairly unknown shot of the 101st AB in Sleek Ewijk or "Slicky Wicky" as the yanks couldn't pronounce the Dutch village!!

Image

Maybe I'll find some more stuff later,

Those are excellent and they show the correct markings and the Center of Gravity tick for use with the glider loading.
Thanks
