Default Capt Denovan, RCE and the AVRE

Cracking Hitler's Wall: The 1st Assault Brigade Engineers on D-Day by Richard C. Anderson gives a pretty complete story of Denovan's work on developing the AVRE.

Just a quick correction: It was called Assault Vehicle Royal Engineers (A.V.R.E.), not Armoured. Armoured is a later designation.

Also, it's the 1st Assault Brigade, Royal Engineers (A.R.E.) - there's a unit history called "A.R.E." which is very good, published just after the war.
