The '79-ers'
Ian,
You'll have to bit a bit careful with that, as 79 was, as I mentioned earlier, a Unit number used to denote different types of units at different times, and within different formation levels, eg:
1941: 79 was a Divisional Provost Company within an Infantry Division;
1941: 79 was also applied to an Advanced Medical Stores Depot at Corps level;
1942: 79 denoted a Mobile Bath Unit or an AA Brigade transport Company.
1943: 79 could indicate a Divisional Signals unit
