XS650 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 The tracks don't look anything like a Bren Carrier's. To me it looks as if it is a Burford Kegresse half track, like the one in these photos. [ATTACH=CONFIG]27200[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]27201[/ATTACH] Fyll Think you've nailed it there , the tracks do look like the rubberised ones and the rear door layouts the same.Never seen one of these before.

steveo578 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 (edited) correct the Jersey milita had 2 Buford H/Ts from about 1929-30 -wonder what happened to them- pushed off the cliff at Les Landes perhaps. Officially called Carrier, machine gun, 30cwt Burford Kegresse B11E5 , 7 chassis were armoured - 3 by Woolich and 4 by Vickers at Erith. ML8604 armoured by Woolich- previously in service with the Cheshire Rgt (2 in service) and ML8623 both ended up with Jersey Milita attribution of local licence plate is not known. In the summer manuvers of 1928 2nd King Royal Rifle Corps used these carriers as part as Mechanised Force - the revolutionary Salisbury Plain battle exercises in the late 1920s. Probably the photos on post #24 of ML8605 were taken during the Mechanised Force exercises Edited May 19, 2010 by steveo578 additional information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
