Carrier grave yards

[shaun]

well i have just spent a few hours scanning a shed load of photos from years gone by, the first batch of carrier photos were taken in 2000 for me by a Brigadier i knew who worked in Shape Mon Belgium. he lived to the west of Mons and as he told me "I have tanks at the bottom of my garden" so he sent these photos. in my opion these vehicles were abandoned by the retreating British BEF and then stripped for spares by the Germans. there is no sign of a gas axe being used. they lay in a "nature reserve" but i now understand they have been recovered by the Belgium tank museum.
