DMC 7RU Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Have checked database - N0104A is 42 Commando, 45 Commando is N5596A, however it shows the Unit location for 42 Commando between 01/01/2006 and 09/03/2006 as being BANUCK AIR STATION , NORWAY. I know that this is well outside the timeframe for service period of the lightweight but might be a clue as to the fitting of the arctic heater. Hope this is of help.

ted angus Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 Steve, many thanks, Well that blew my theory out of the water. fancy Edinburgh/Dundee area down to Plymouth then up to Kinross for auction . I checked 42 and it seems they too have done several Artic warfare stints. thanks again for your help regards TED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
