Would like to know if anyone has info on the WE (War Establishment) of a 1944 Recee Regt. for Infantry Divisions?
WE =TOE in current parlance.
From my reading they had Humber MkIV's as there gun AC and then switched to Diamler's around time of Falaise operations.

Hello Waycool
Only one small BTW not related to the vehicles but to the Regiment. In the Falaise operations there is also joint episode of the 17th and three Polish units. All of them fought in the region of hellish Quesnay wood. From the Polish side they were 24th Ulans Regiment, 2nd SP Artillery Regiment and 8th Rifle Battalion.
Best regards
