Default RCASC Formation

Hello everyone,
I'm researching a Canadian soldier who was a member of the RCASC from '43 to '46. The soldier is my wife's father. Many veterans didn't talk about their experiences during WWII and Stanley was one of them. No-one in his family knew what he did and that's what peaked my interest. In 1998 / 99 I started researching the role Stanley played in WWII. Violet received information from the National Archives of Canada. It wasn't long before I had more questions than answers. I followed Stanley from Saskatchewan in '43 to France in '44. I have a long ways to go, but I've learned so much, much more than my high school social studies classes. I stopped researching in 2001 and now I've started again. I look forward to asking questions to everyone because of your vast amount of knowledge.

I'm at the point where Stanley is a member of 2MAC, 'A' platoon. What types of vehicles would 2MAC use and what would the formation look like in 1944.

Thanks for your time and consideration,
cheers,
Dino
