About the Bedford QLC - Fuel Bowser:

Bedford produced a series of military trucks for the British military during World War II. The QLC version had a large tank mounted on the chassis that allowed it to function both as an aircraft refueling vehicle and fire engine. The “Fuel Bowser” variant would have been driven by Royal Air Force (RAF) grounds crew who were in charge of maintenance and refueling. This system allowed for quick refueling as the RAF were the sole defenders of Britain during the Nazi bombing campaign, otherwise known as the Battle of Britain.
