Photo just below "Miss New Zealand" that says it's taken at Iwo by 5MarDiv is incorrect.
Aircraft, gliders?, have British markings and invasion stripes. Photo is likely Normandy in June of '44.

I like the half tracks in the second pic.

Bruce, you are correct on the British gliders. Those are British glider troops and looks like their Jeep is modified for running communication wire.
