Re-organization
Hello Jon, In the current issue of the journal CANADIAN MILITARY HISTORY, (Vol 13, No 3), there is a recount of an operational report. This report is an extract of the Second Canadian Armoured Brigade on events and lessons learned 6-11 June 1944. Point 25 in the report states:
As a result of experience gained in this campaign, it has been decided to organize squadrons on a four tank troop basis. Each troop will have three 75mm and one 17 pdr. ...
The point continues to discuss the position of the troop leader within the four vehicles.
Given the dates referred in the report, it is obvious that the re-organization was after June 11. No firm date was given.
