Lights on prewar British tanks

It would be a huge clue if there was a similarly operated green one at the front perhaps, I'm guessing here and do not recall the correct order but don't army convoys carry a green flag at the head and a blue one on the last vehicle? Or is it the other way round?

Other way around, I always remember it as green at the rear for "all clear". Anyhow, as it explains in the D&M Manual, red or blue may be fitted to rear but no mention of coloured lens to front lights. I will go along with Tony's theory about reversing with blue light on, until more proof is found.
