Hi Gents,

I'm interested to know more about the Ram Badger flamethrower carrier. Information on these vehicles seems to be rather scanty, but the only things I know about them were that they were used by the Canadians for the first time in Operation Veritable (the Reichswald), the Mk I was turretless with the Wasp II flame kit in the hull and the Mk II had the old MG mini-turret mounted on the top, with the flamethrower replacing the MG.

Can anyone add anything to this?

What units used them?
Any ideas on sub-unit organisation?
Were they part of 79th Armoured Division? 1st CACR perhaps?
Were the Mk IIs ever used in action?

Cheers,

Mark
