As Me 163 & V-1 are correct, I suspect due to different curators.

One with boots is 4 Welch.

I believe museum policies had a real cooling effect, seeing many donations refused.

Undermined by a lack of national military museum for Wales.

One of these may be, bootless. A chance it is 2 SWB.

Kit/training/location on the rest is right bar.... div!

Sadly there are not too many of 2 Mons about, at least that I've been able to access.

Someone, I'm not sure who, will write a book on this subject.

Suspect it'll sell well.

The IWM is rarely open to any discussion.

It has a long, and terrible, track record.

I mean in many ways bulldozers are not sexy.

Yeah, many would say heavy plant is dull.

But bulldozers were an essential piece of kit that allowed 21st Army Group to keep things moving.

People go on about Tigers, but... had Army Group B had a few bulldozers, well... /thread

Find trashed kit?

Into the ditch with it.

Open up core line of communication.

Column moves on.

Job done. /12

The biggest moment for D-7s came during spearheading 11th Armoured Division's charge smashing eastwards through the Falaise Gap.

No other vehicle could so easily take small arms fire etc & clear obstacles for other AFVs etc.

When Sherman Dozers weren't available to smash through roadblocks or wreckage, armoured D-7 Dozers helped lead the way.

These hulking pieces of kit granted Allied divisions a real edge: not mirrored by any German asset in Normandy. /10
