Vickers and Bren carriers - some info
Some years back at the Cor's VMMV Openhouse, I met a veteran of the independent Machine Gun Company assigned to the 61st Division. He was a bren carrier driver and had his carrier with him from D+19 to the end of the war.
He said in all that time, they never fired the Vickers from the engine deck mount.... always took the section of Vickers up to a firing position and strung phones to them and the layer with the Barr and Stroud rangefinder. He said in their role, they just never "fought from the carrier" with the Vickers.
