Firefly named "Blondie": British or Canadian?

[Jack Geratic]

Not sure why the link did not work, but here it is again, plus another. A further explanation given to me was that CLY did not limit their use of nicknames to squadron letters.





This 'work in progress' file lists Blondie as T212732 : http://mmpbooks.biz/mmp/tables/Vehicle_Names_V2.pdf

T.212732 would make it a Sherman Vc thus most likely A Sqn, 4 CLY...

Thanks - will amend my own files...

A Sqn, 4 CLY at Villers Bocage knocked out on 13 Jun 44 during the rampage of Michael Wittman . Later taken to Kummerdorf training area for tests if I remember from another forum.

Jack,

It doesn't work because you linked it from another forum. It's best to attach pictures to your postings here.

HTH,
