Hi Matt,
Great photos thanks for posting. Any idea which regiments Kookaburra and Cossack belong to? I have T72908 in my WD database but nothing in the unit field. Any additional info would be a help. Cheers Kevin |

Great photos indeed Matt.
Any dates ? Some of the latter look post war, late 40's? Thinking of the ones that appear to be at a demo day, and is that an early Centurion? Rich
