    Fear not! 1st Armd Div documents are there. They come after the 1st Div Sec RAOC documents. However, it's just 4 pages of nothing and the officers' nominal role. As it says on the cover "no diary".

    Regarding Snow White, have a read of this thread: Scammell "Snow White."

    It was a total brain fart.

    I shall be going to the library again in the next couple of months, so if there are any articles you seek, but cannot obtain, let me know. Check out the website to see what they have available, happy to copy anything.

    On the other forum you asked about 2.Inf-Div(mot) about Abbeville and Amiens. Are you interested in the original German documentation l found?

    I am, and I appreciate the offer, but if it is in German, I wouldn't be able to understand it.

    Yep. All in the original German. Not only that, but most documents are also fire and water damaged and thus tricky to read.

    3RTR taken on 23.5.40, the burnt out tanks from the road. The other photos i have of the same tanks are taken from the other side.

    Hi ! I'm a new member and I need your help. I look for pictures of battle for Boulogne-sur-Mer 25-26th may 1940. The seller of this snapshot write that this A9 is knock out in Boulogne but I don't think so. Some of the members wrote that the T 7251 was destroyed in Calais. Can you confirm ? Thanks a lot!

    Hi, I hope you don't mind me tacking on this question to the thread.

    I'm writing this week on Twitter about the Light Tank Mark VI after visiting the museum at Base Borden, Ontario, and getting some good shots of the Light Tank Mk VIB there. (Light Tank Mk VI | WW2Talk) I just re-read the description of events in Patrick Delaforce's book on 3RTR at Calais, and I would like to post something on twitter about it. Does anyone have one or two photos of 3RTR Lights from Calais that I could repost?
