Default Scout carriers

Hello richard thanks for the link to british Pathe, if only the serial numbers of the Scout Carriers could be made out...

It's an interesting comparison with the three generations of carrier (Bren, Scout and Universal) travelling along in convoy and in order of descendancy.

Cheers

Phill

Default These are obviously from an Essex Regiment.

There should be other footage somewhere as I have also seen a carrier bearing the name Colchester.

Cheers
Kevin
