Somewhere I posted that the Westminster Regiment(motor) 5th Canadian Armoured Division in Italy had 50s on there Carriers.
The .50 were from The Lord Stathconas that tossed them aside in favour of .30 s
The .50 were not Abile to point down the side of their Tanks to shoot the Gemans off.
This story came from A Sgt I new from the wartime Westies that I cannot remember his name ! Dam Memory . I asked him were he got the ammo and He said they had gotten enough from the strathconas. I ask how they got the .50s and He said He went over and asked.
