Here is the other document I received from the tank museum. Maybe this will shed light on which countries or what if any campaigns it served in..

It is actually 01 EC 43

I read the web page on the Blues and Royals and it looks as if they were an honor guard for the Queen if I am reading it correctly but it also said they fought in Kosovo, Bosnia, The Gulf and the Falklands. I am confused if they are an honor guard why they are in hostile areas. Maybe I am confused as to their role. Also, is there any way to tell if the vehicle actually went to any of these areas or is that impossible? I would like to find out as much about this Ferret as possible. I have another document from the Tank Museum I am trying to download that shows some sort of service history but I am having issues with my scanner. Thanks for any help..

Thanks for the welcome. I received some information about the Ferret from the Tank Museum but wanted a "translation" from anyone from the UK as I am unfamiliar with some of the groups the vehicle served with. Here is a quote from Stuart from the tank museum. Any help would be appreciated. "What I can tell you is that it served with the Royal Horse Guards (now Blues and Royals) and the Life Guards which perform key ceremonial duties such as Trooping the Colour. Your Ferret then when on to serve with the Queens Own Yeomanry which was a Royal Armoured Corps Volunteer regiment." [/i][/i]

Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Matt Carroll and I live in San Diego California. I just purchased a Ferret and am trying to learn as much as I can about it. I have always wanted a Ferret and am excited as it will be delivered in the next few weeks. Not sure what the insignia is on the front of the turret but the Tank Museum said it was part of the Queens Yeomanry. I figured with this site full of people from the UK it would be a good source of information. Let me know what you think? Matt
