Canadian Tank Questions

[Roddy de Normann]

Hi to all -

I am currently - slowly but surely - going through a whole series of Canadian Armoured Regiment war diaries and now have a number of questions...

A. What was the context with which a Canadian vehicle had the WD Serial prefix 'CT' as opposed to the usual 'T' ? Manufacture - ie Rams/Grizzlies - I can understand but what of UK or US vehs ?

B. A number of vehs are refered to as 'AAC' - Ram AACs, Stuart AACs - what are these, anti-air ?

C. Are Ram Wasps the same as Ram Badgers ?

D. Ram 25pdr - was this a re-worked Ram tank or a different design altogether ? Would a Ram 25pdr WD serial be the same as an original Ram tank ?

Any answers greatly received !
