thanks for this stuff, and I will definitely look into a Clansmen set. In 1994, I drove my Daimler Armoured Car, from Shrewsbury to Portsmouth and all around Normandy. I was only thwarded on the return 280 mile trip by a broken vlave spring. So I do have experience of driving Armoured vehicles on the road, and the visibility out of the vision slots and front hatch of a DAC is not great to put it mildly. That said, we are talking about nearly 20 years ago, and there is no doubt that traffic volumes are much greater than they were then.

As a point of interest, we drove the whole way using the internal 19 set intercom with original headphones. All I can say was that the chaps who used them in period with the noise of battle going on were amazing!
