  1. The BARV did brakedown but it remained on the beach in the position seen in the photo for the war
  2. In the picture you have the vehicles of 4th Assault Squadron 1 x Eager Beaver 1 x Mitchigan track layer My BARV
  3. There is a lot of speculative issues raised so lets look at the facts. There were almost every type of vehicle taken South the largest being the Centurion BARV, Scorpion, Scimitar, CEVT, Snowtrac, BV202 the main vehicle taken over land, Landrovers all types radio vehicles etc, Bedford trucks inc canvas fuelers etc, Landrover 101 used for gunners, Eager Beaver and many more. The quote suggesting we had Unimogs not right they belonged to the Argi's and were liberated after The wheeled vehicles were not moved overland but some (radio landrovers) were taken by sea. The sad loss of F4 would see some go down on their way. RIP Lads! The Yomp was necessary because of the land it was and is a problem even for the BV's hence why the Argi's never moved their Panhard Armour out of Stanley. The Bedford Truck seen in the video was 4th Assault Squadron's off HMS Fearless
  4. The Bedford coming ashore belonged to 4th Assault Squadron off HMS Fearless I was BARV Driver on the day and for the War
