In 1967 I was a cfn at 12 inf bde HQ &sig sqn.LAD Quibeck bks Osnabruck .we were being issued with 439's it was common knowledge that the issue of Samson REME apc's was delayed as the hiab would not lift a pack unless it was parked about a foot higher than the casualty. Not an easy thing in the field! We were issued a half track with jib for pack changes It was used successfully I have some photos of it in action but am utterly useless with a computer. There is a halftrack with all the jib brackets but no jib at IWM Duxford.
