robin craig Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I was fortunate enough a while back to be loaned a book that was published by Alcan Booth Sheet Limited, one of the many parts of a company long since broken up and sold. The book is titled "The military uses of aluminium" and is actually a collection of presentations made at REME Borden and RMCS Shrivenham in the years 1965 and 1968. The book details a wealth of non classified but highly interesting facts about how the amour was developed and the problems involved and the manufacturing process and the jigs and fixtures. If you have any of the CVRT or CVRW vehicles it is a must read coffee table book. It was only ever intended as a hand out and was not for retail sales. Thankfully through sites like www.abebooks.com and others you can still find copies around today. Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
