Default Thanks

David,

Thanks for posting the period picture of the Lynx and Staghound of the 12th Manitoba Dragoons. My interest is the unofficial kit that the crews would carry on their vehicles. This crew looks as if they were in it for the long haul.

Peter

Cool

Hello Peter,

Another photo in Belgium (sept 44) from the Manitoba Dragoons taken near Brugges. Can you spot the 'upgrade'?

David,

Another great period picture. All three are great examples of 'ad hoc' stowage that crews adopted in the field. Hard to tell in the picture but it does look as if the Observers/Gunners seat has been changed out ?

Peter
