The Garrison Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 These pictures were discovered amongst a soldiers belongings that were recently unearthed. The soldier may have ties with the LRDG and it is understood he was a member of Royal Sigs. We are just looking into the bike and truck to see if we can establish a timeline or maybe even a unit they belonged to.. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Norton is one of those fitted with the strange pannier tool box's. Looks like North Africa. But I'm not good at identifying units.

wdbikemad Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Spot-on Ron.....a 16H, late-40 to mid-41 manufacture I'm estimating by the fitting of the pannier-type toolboxes and later speedo bracket....:-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
