PB1954RNS Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Hi. Can any one help me with unit details of bridging units that used these lorries Albion BY5 FBE - Folding Boat Equipment. Im looking for all the army vehicle markings, unit numbers so that I can put the Albion into the correct markings for 1944 - 45. You can email any photo's - they are always welcome - to paulburns@honey45.plus.com Any help would be most welcome as I would like to see it in the correct markings. Cheers Paul Burns.

Told to look for a web site by Peter Ghiringhelli and use Blue Cross on White for 2nd army, Blue square and put White 145 - uint number for 36 engineers. Just wondering if any one had different info on other units who used these lorries Cheers. Paul Burns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackpowder44 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 These three formation signs are in a book published by 21st. Army group at the end of the war. These signs were used on vehicles and not formation signs as worn on BD, John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great details I shall make a careful note of the details and try to see if I can get them reproduced, as I think one of the bages would look good on the front mud guard. Again many thanks for your help and sorry for the delay in replying. Cheers. Paul Burns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
