    Something I recently saw - with a "Rauray" + "Lancers" search - on twitter, albeit it appears to be a 2016 post:

    Nb. mostly the same text as the lower half of: 24th Lancers, M4 vs Panthers. Rauray 1/7/44

    With some minor differences...

    I'd of thought "21st Lancers" was a simple typo for the "24th Lancers", albeit then I'd have expected it might have been "24st Lancers" ;-)
