Pale blue tactical markings for armoured car regiments?
I've come across this info form the war diary of 5th Armd Div. dated January 1942.
http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oo...52/964?r=0&s=4 CAR MARKINGS TACTICAL.jpg At that time, it's composition included the 1st Armoured Car Regiment (The Royal Canadian Dragoons). With reorganization in 1943, they became a I Canadian Corps asset. So many questions, but obvious one - would the pale blue tactical colour still be in use during 1944-45? Is there any seniority between the two Dragoon car units, such that RCD would have red tactical signs, and yellow for the Manitoba Dragoons? How about the Reconnaissance Regiments assigned individually to the three Infantry Divisions: https://www.canadiansoldiers.com/tac...ceregiment.htm dfDbbsD.png Colour for tactical markings - pale blue, seniority colours, or white?? Back to the Manitoba Dragoons, they seem to have the best photo samples, and studying them gives an impression that the tactical marking was anything but white. In fact, sometimes even the vehicle census number is dark: 8968_574620812640194_4010584611335115847_n.jpg image152.jpg regards, Jack |
