Just found a short list of tank casualties from 22 CAR. Can anyone explain the meaning of W, X, Y and Z codes. Cheers Kevin
X Casualty = reparable within 24 hours Y Casualty = Over 24 hours, requires assistance from repair personnel and likely to be repairable by unit fitters and light aid detachments or second line workshops. Z Casualty = requires extensive repair or replacement involving evacuation. Zw = Total loss, burnt out. War diaries : T-12729 - Héritage
Thanks for the clarification. There are some interesting documents in this file., which I should have included the link - sorry, attached mentions the Centurion and Black Prince, Alecto, Centaur Kangaroo? ( never seen or heard of one) but the document does not seem to be dated. In an earlier document it mentions the Coventry Armoured Car. Cheers Kevin
