Default Staghounds

Greetings, Vegemite-type-guy:

Excellent pics of the Staghound.

They were, for some reason, notorious for being bogged down during FTXs.

Our (Canadian) Armoured Corps used these, in a Recce role, up to about the late '50s, IIRC.

I do remember Tango call signs asking for Bluebell assistance, in the field.

(Tango call signs=Armour, Bluebell=RCEME request for pulling out another stuck Staghound.)
