Hiya

 

You will need a copy of the Merlin report if possible depending upon its struck off date. I am sure Clive has assisted you with some data on your flying pig.

 

An archive search can be undertaken by writing to the RLC Museum at Deepcut. A Non Refundable fee of £25.00 is payable and if the old B card exists then they will send you a photocopy.

 

The searches dont always yield results, but it's worth a go.

 

Also Clive may have some old information in his archive and database that could throw something up.

 

Good Luck :-D

Keep us posted how you get on as the Deepcut searches vary dramatically even for identical vehicles of similar age as it all depends on how good the MT's admin was for the Corps/ Regt.

 

They are the old Beverly army records that they have.
