    Ok, nobody has an answer.

    They were sledges attached under Sherman tanks, carrying 110 rounds of 75-mm ammunition, and apparently used on D-Day (according to Col. Merritt Hayes Bateman, The Sherbrooke Fusiliers Regiment, 27th Armoured Regiment -> From: http://gateway1.uvic.ca/spcoll/Mil/Oral.html ).

    The tanks go ashore, they drop their turtles at a rendezvous, they carry on fighting. If they need ammo, it is there at the rendezvous waiting.
    Ingenious.

    The camo looks French, but I didn't think France really bothered much with tankettes.
    Though I could be very wrong.

    How about Belgian?

    Thank you Skua!

    Skoda MU-4, also known as T-1 or S-1.
    Only one prototype made, apparently.

    It's British. Something on the side has been erased. The turret reminds me of the Humber Mk.II.
