On Canadian Archives Reel 12727 at image 628 of the Canadian Grenadier Guards War Diary , there is a breakdown of WD numbers at embarkation. Only one Firefly number (T228651 C-44), but most Sherman V WD numbers and many Stuarts, Humbers, ARVs and halftracks.
It also shows most squadron assignments.
It was a waterproofing report.
If you want a better-than-average chance of getting a ‘good’ WD number for your CGG modelling project, this is the place.
Arcane I know, but I’ve been down the archive rabbit hole for two world wars the whole day so this seems pretty interesting.
Here’s the link:
