    The air show comentator was not very good, a few inacuracies (like my spelling.....) There was a chap doing this that had only one arm, he was much better.

    A signaler carring the A41 has to carry his webbing as well as the radio. So where is his mess tins,washing kit, etc to go? Try getting the frame over the kidney pouches......... I think that it is for these items, I seem to remember it that way.

    Andy Well done to the chaps at The Tank Museum ? As much as I like them they did nothing at all, it was myself and a brave band of helpers who did the restoration.

    As to request in Post 7; This is the A11 Infantry Tank Mk1 Matilda 1 after it had been extracted from its resting place on the range at Otterburn. The date is June 1988. After 5 years work the tank was in a restored running condition, it is part of the running fleet at Bovington.

    Now what happened to this Leyland ? It was photographed in 1993 near Stockport and I believe owned by a Roy Breeze.

    I remember seeing this brilliant film first time round in I think 1967. It got me thinking then, however it was not the Guards for me. Thanks for providing the means to see this again. It is a film of its time and should not be judged by 2010's attitudes, be they right or wrong.

    This is photo taken at the A F Budge Gamston depot about 1996. It is a Cruiser Tank Mk 11 or 11A. They were manufactured 1938 - 1940 and in action with the BEF and in North Africa. To me and others it is a A10. Originaly it was at Pirbright now long gone for scrap................
