Engineers and Universal Carriers

[sapper740]

Just to ensure that people don't get the wrong impression that Engineers were always working with fascinating kit such as Perforated Steel Planking and expedient runway surfaces, we also had to work with the more mundane now and then also. Engineers found another use for the handy Universal Carrier as a trailer to haul our kit around in. The caption in the following picture shows a motorless UC carrying RE stores towed behind the fuel trailer of a Crocodile flame tank. I don't know if the "motorless" UC was acquired in the field or delivered to the Engineers that way as a purpose built armoured trailer.

CHIMO! Derek.
