Default Re: SOD

They had a need for a Recce car and a surplus load of DACs and not enough Dingos they were used as a command vehicle but also a 'baiting' vehicle when against the German ambush positions. That came from a veteran who served in C Squadron. He also told me when they landed on the beaches of Normandy on D-day +1 there DACs were painted black!
