>>> APPEAL
<<<
We are looking for WW2 images of vehicles for both regiments so
that we can identify their WD Numbers and "given" names. We
would also like to identify the vehicle type/mark.
This includes the Tanks (Sherman-153 & M3
Stuart-154), Sexton SPs, Bren Carriers, Half tracks, Morris
Quad..... any vehicle or gun.
