Thank you very much for this info. Polish sources tell nothing about the tank delivery system for the Polish 1st Armoured Division
Hi Gregory;

In various Orders of Battle for 1st Polish Armoured Division (1944-45), and on various Arm of Service (AoS) marking charts, there is shown (under Divisional Troops) the following Polish unit:

1st Tank Replacement Squadron

Markings:

AoS: serial '473' (in white) on a background of Green over Blue
Formation Sign used: 1st Polish Armd Div

"F" Sqn (1st Cdn Army Troops - Armd Del Sqn) and "E" Sqn (2nd Cdn Corps Troops - Armd Del Sqn), may have been involved with the replacement of tank (and AFVs) for the division at various times.

Cheers
