Canadian DND Numbers
Good Afternoon to all...
Canadian DND Numbers...is there a definitive answer to them ?
I was recently looking through the microfilmed war diary of the Canadian 3rd Armoured Brigade (T-10655). On 14 & 15 Aug 42 it handed over all its Ram tanks to the 4th Armoured Brigade. Each tank was refered to by both a name and the last serials of the DND number as follows:
HQ Sqn 3rd Armd Bde HO/TO HQ Sqn 4th Armd Bde
457 (Euclid)
3235 (Eunostos)
25 Armd Regt HO/TO HQ Sqn 4th Armd Bde
3238 (May)
28 Armd Regt HO/TO HQ Sqn 4th Armd Bde
673 (Barnet)
25 Armd Regt HO/TO 21 Armd Regt
462 (McGrath)
467 (Eureka)
494 (Mink)
677 (Barclay)
3232 (McGeorge)
3239 (Mole)
3249 (Mate)
3247 (Robin)
28 Armd Regt HO/TO 22 Armd Regt
471 (Banfield)
474 (Banff)
495 (Barrie)
676 (Balzac)
3241 (Brock)
3242 (Byng)
3243 (Buller)
3253 (Bruin)
29 Armd Regt HO/TO 27 Armd Regt
479 (Cobra)
692 (Connie)
698 (Coutts)
699 (Cockie)
696 (Cosy)
693 (Corny)
3237 (Classy)
3236 (Clive)
3240 (Clara)
3255 (Coyote)
Can anyone give me the full DND numbers for the above ? And can anyone give me the corresonding veh T Number ? Finally, has anyone got any paperwork/orders ref application of these numbers to the vehs ?
Many thanks in anticipation
