Default Grant ARV

Hi there

Apparently the 5th Armoured Division had one as well.

Somewhere I have reference to it being used by the 5th Armoured Brigade Workshop RCEME. It was deemed a more versatile (and valuable) vehicle than the Sherman ARV's because it had a winch and a boom. Consequently it was never sent into the front lines in case it got knocked out.
