Default British Numbers

Hi Ken,

The Brit numbers are post war, 1950s, and relate to Centurion tanks. For some unknown reason, the Studebaker/Reo trucks delivered in 1945 and the Centurion tanks that arrived in late 1951/1952, were assigned the same ARN. Some clerk has written the Brit Centurion number next to the relevant ARN, but next to the Studebaker/Reo entries.

The Centurions are also listed elsewhere in AWM126 with those same ARNs, but I don't remember which register they are in.

Mike
