Postwar Loyd Users
Which contries used Loyd carriers following WW2 and do we know when the final ones went out of service?
I understand that the Belgium Army used them (mine were used my them), the Dutch and presumably the British army... Does anyone know if a specific 'Loyd Carrier' book has been printed? The Watson Carrier series covers the Loyd in some detail but understandably no post war detail is included. I am interested to discover when mine may have been put out on the range Nr Malmedy (Elsenborn Ridge) and in what configuration.

Post-war Loyds
More to the point - what were the WD Nos of those that were passed on to these countries - bet they have the details somewhere...
