Default Larkhill example

Thanks for that, it is a rare one having the suspended stub axle, a la Martin Parry conversion.
I was at Larkhill and it was on the back of a truck ready to be taken away. There is a lot of stuff out in the open just rusting away....such a pity. Still I guess as we dont have enough money to pay our troops and equip them, looking after "old" stuff is not a high priority.

I have one photo of one in service, and I know Woolwich has the manuals.
The photo is I am sure from an excercise in the UK, date and unit unknown.

Best of luck with the restoration.

George.
