Rainbow,
Thank You ! Looks brilliant ! Hoping to see the stuff you're working on in the near future.
;ames,
Where did you get that info about 41 Commando ? I know that Commachio Group (the current Fleet Protection Group) was 43 Commando in all but name (used the same company designations, lanyard, battle honours, etc.). Is this current ? I know that the intell/recce units of 3 Cdo Bde. recently took the name & lineage of the WWII 30 Assault Unit.
13 FV432's were modified with Fox turrets (30mm Rarden) in the late 70's I believe. 12 eventually went to the Berlin Bde. (Four to each resident Bn., I have pics of the Allied Forces Day Parade which confirms this). The three Berlin bn.' s had a unique organization besides these FV432's. The Recce Plt. Had 8 Fox CVR(W) and the AT Plt. Had both MILAN & WOMBAT.
