IT seems it is the another shot of her you have alredy posted. It looks like she was named CARO/GARO or what is more likely the GARD or GARONNE as I didnt find the first names on the list. In the case it would be the no. 324 for the GARD and no. 308 for the GARONNE.

Both the GARD and GARONNE served in the 37th DCC. While the no.308 "Garonne" was the commander's tank of the 1st Company, the no.324 "GARD" belonged to the 2nd Company and its 3rd Section together with the no.323 "VAR" tank also well-known from other pictures. Both the GARD and VAR tanks wore the white "S" radio code letter on the turret and the hull. Also there was the marking of the 3rd Section on the back of the turret ( a trangle on tip with the ace of diamonds ). For the reason I think that's the "GARD".

The No.310 Meuse was captured in the Beaumont town. She wore the "O" letter on the hull sides and its back. Also on the turret sides. There was the "Ace of Hearts" in the square on the back of the turret. I can't see the radio letter code on the hull side. Here is a shot of her ... the "O" letter there can be noticed. What is more there are the German unit inscriptions on the hull side seen while the tank above has them on the front armour plate. Both pics are very similar but these are the two different Char 1Bis IMHO.
