Glad to hear confirmation on the TD being a proper part of the census numbers. There is a real lack of good information on the T-16s and we are all still learning about their history during the war. Hopefully someone will come across more of the original British wartime records related to their unit assignments.

Looking through the message thread I noticed I never added a shot of my own carrier. It was sold off to the Swiss after the war and when I got it, everything was striped and the remains were a rusty mess. Serial Number is 5399 with the FS number being 5488. Date stamped by the serial number is 1-44 and the Census/ORD number is TD97377.
