Hi Richard

I was refering to the British .... thanks for the link . The British army took LR 's into their inventory very early on , some 1948 models apparently . You dont see many photo's of them in Korea , which may be because very few got there .

Talking of Australia ,there is evidence to suggest that the Aust. army trialled a 80" with a Holden grey motor in it , in the early 1950's . They tried one of the B40 engined ones too .

Mike
