Production has already commenced on this video which will focus on the Year of the Carrier event in Corowa.
Last weekend I shot an interview with Mike Cecil of the Australian War Memorial who is arguably Australia's foremost authority on these vehicles, having authored a profile on them and conducted a lot of research into the differing models and how they were used. In the interview he discusses the three basic Australian models - the LP 1, 2 and 2A as well as the Tank Attack and Mortar carriers. In addition he covers the LP3 which was prototyped, 1 ton tracked truck, half track experiments and the various British versions. The challenge is now to come up with some photographs and/or footage of these versions, to help tell the story. Can I encourage you all to be a part of this video - your assistance will be greatfully acknowledged in the credits. Also, if you have some home movies of your carriers - this applies to people in any part of the world I'm considering a segment on these as well - I already have a segment featuring Stew Loy's carrier which he kindly took for a freezing drive last February. Why not shoot a segment - interview yourself or get someone else to do it! Over to you! ![]()
