John,
I have been searching British Pathe trying find photos of Sextons of 23rd Field. Sadly with little luck. But I think I have found one from 13th Field Regiment. There are a couple of frames of a Sexton called "Carrubba" S233951 crossing a swing or cantilever bridge. The number 43 ( 13th Field? ) is clearly seen with CC (No.3 gun C troop ? ) above it. The British Pathe film number is 2133.05 and the Sexton is at frame no. 374. There are also a couple of frames of a Crusader AA at 462, 463 and 464. The film is dated as a possible 12-10-44 Mark, Sorry I should have been more specific. I meant to say were they equipped with Sextons when they landed. I just used D-Day as a date. Doug, Thanks for confirming 23rd Fields use of Sextons. Thank you all for the replies. Cheers Kevin ![]() ![]() |
