Markings:

AoS: serial '473' (in white) on a background of Green over Blue
Formation Sign used: 1st Polish Armd Div
Ha!

I know of course AoS 473 but in the Polish sources it has unclear status. It does not have the status of a Squadron and what is more 1st Tank Replacement Squadron. In Polish literature this unit is called generally as "Divisional Replenishment Center".

Thanks Mark!
