Mk III, Valentine 2lbers


Reason for these is I'm fighting a slighty later Desert opponent than my Operation Crusader chums in a week or so.


And let's face it, Antrobus needs all the help he can get!


I went with the sandskirt version, just becasue I liked them.


Off they trundle - technically, in BKCIV, not as good as a Matilda II, but in real life...


Must get rid of the 2lbers though. No wonder M3s and M4s were prefered.

Said I wasn't going to use lead lease tanks.
Four ordered.
It was inevitable I suppose

Lt Col Antrobus has taken a tour of some of the more unseemly and unsavoury outskirts of Alex and found himself a company of engineers to support the 139th on their further adventures.


He's also found some trucks to use.


I know some of these have mixed kit.


No more wire belts or minefields here


"Everyone into the trucks!"
