You don't get more primary source material then this. Ive said it a few time but 2nd Cnd Inf Div was out fitted with T-16's for the infantry battalion A/T platoons. This happened while in England and they went to NWE with them in July 1944. 3rd Div was given all Mk1/2 carriers to keep things the same for the invaision. If you look at almost any NWE picture of a T16 is can almost certanly be traced back to a 2nd Div unit. There are lots of pictures you just need to look really hard for some of them as the veh's are in the background or under piles of kit.
http://www.class-five.com/~mlu/forum...ghlight=forbes Geoff, you make mention of the 48th Highlanders. Thats very true about them wanting trucks as thats what they used in Italy and there is a lot more room in a truck then a T-16.
