Default Markings

Hi Mark,
For some reason, the attachment did'nt seem to attach, I'll try again shortly. As for the squaddie,I guess it depends on how many other trucks he miss-marked! Your thoughts on her being attached to the 121st also makes sense, as I have come to the same conclusion. This is based on the fact that she was supplied in August 1942.I'll try and contact Malcolm Bellis, to see if he can shed any light on the subject.Whilst we are on the subject of markings, I've fiqured out how the Battery would have been shown,ie, a blue square with a small red square into one of the corners, to show which battery she was with, and then you have letters and numbers on the above blue square which give the Tractor Number, Gun Number and Company Number. Do you know how would she have been marked to show that she was in the 121st?. Would this have been a red over blue square with the number 47 on it?
Thanks
Keith
