Hard to say, though.... if the Ram was taken out of Canadian holding stocks and shipped to the newly forming 49APCR, they might well have never painted out the "C".

Here´s another Kangaroo of the 49th Armoured Personnel Carrier Regiment (also scanned from "British Tanks of WWII (2) Holland & Germany 1944/1945"), and it has a "C" WD no. It´s not really clear, but it seems to read as CT 40666, which my files show as being a Kangaroo in the 21st Army Group. It is not on the list of Ram Cruiser Tanks struck off charge to the British, though. CT40688 was, so maybe that is the WD no. if this picture indeed shows a 49APCR Kangaroo.

Intriguing stuff, isn´t it?
