Quand j'était gamin, j'avais une miniature de ce camion. Il était de marque Citroën.

Exact, ce camion célèbre pour les Quiquas dont je fais partie a été reproduit en zamac par la marque de jouet JRD si je ne me trompe pas (échelle "batarde" genre 1/65ème je crois)

Up to me, it's not a genuine Citroen of "Armée de Terre", but a civilian Citroen Type 55, 46 or 60 painted for movie as french army. The wooden platform and tarpaulin shape doesn't match with those made by Genève (body) for armies (Terre, Air, Mer), and there is not any army indentification on the body.

By the way, the military Citroen of that era were Type 55, or Type 46 CDI. I didn't find any C60 DI in my sources, neither in "50 ans de véhicules militaires en France de 1945 à nos jours" by J.M.BONIFACE -ed ETAI, nor in "Les Camions Citroën" by F.Sabates-W.Jensen - ed. Massin Editeur.
But maybe , some lacks can occur in these books too ?

For this one particularly, I would say a Citroen Type 55. but it could be a 46 either?

Recall the difference:
Type 55 ==> Gazoline or Diesel 4,68 Litre engine
Type 46 ==> Gazoline 5,10 Litre engine
Type 47 ==> Diesel 5,10 Litre engine
Type 60 ==> Same engines as 46 or 47 , but streched and enforced chassis.

There are no external differences between 55 and 46,47.
