Default bren gun carier in crate

Richard that story has been doing the rounds all my life...I knew the scrap man who emptied the airfield and he got every last thing...I had the station clock!some years ago I located the bulldozer driver who told me the true story...side of hill was scraped away and all the unwanted stuff was buldozed in and recovered with soil and not concrete as the myth has it!...I know where it is but a gravel company are now mining there...he also showed me where the AA gun was sited and in the stream there where still empty cases....on a more positive note Im currently awaiting permission to explore the old Stobs Camp site as there may be a Carrier in the bog although one local reckons its a Valentine Tank which was bogged by the Poles best regards malcolm
