Hi Guys
Thanks for the interest and the replies. Basically what I am after is a compilation of the vehicles and/or artillery pieces which were actually used in action by the allied airborne forces in WWII and immediately after - particularly those transported by glider. As is generally known, they used the Tetrach and Locust, the carrier, the jeep for towing 6 pdr. and 75mm guns and the Morris 'c' 30cwt and Dodge 3/4 ton trucks for towing 17 pdr. guns. What I would like to find out is what special modifications were made to the carriers - I have lots of references to them being used but few pictures and even less description. Also I have references (and one picture) to the armoured recce. regiments using dingo scout cars but were they air landed or part of the sea-borne tail of vehicles which reinforced after the landings? Answers to these questions and any other information will be gratefully received. Regards Gerry
