Agree on Old Guard. Do like the suggestions for new. But for me, would like to see another Brit Cavalry Unit, possibly Horse Guard, or 10th Hussar. I'd also like to see from the WOD, Horse Guard mates to the Life Guards. But that's just me..................................Joe

What about British Light Dragoons??? There are all ready 2 regiments of 'Heavys' (Scots Dragoons and Lifeguards) and on the French side there have been the 7th Hussars, so lights would fill in nicely

Most if not all of the half tracks used by the British Commonwealth countries including Canada were M5 versions built in Canada by International Harvester and were similar but not identical to the US M3 built by White. The M5 and M3 shared drive train and wheel parts but one big difference was the construction. The US version was of bolted construction using face hardened steel plate. Face hardened steel plate was not available for the M5. It was of welded construction using thicker and heavier steel to try and make up for the non-face hardened steel but fell short while adding to the vehicle weight and reducing it's performance.

The M5 was never fitted with the large fender-mounted headlights. International Harvester used rolled homogeneous steel armor rounded rear corners, which contrast to the right-angled corners on the machines with face-hardened armor.

Yes i was fully aware of the differences in production and that the commonwealth developed the vehicle as an M5. and succesfull or unsuccesfull it does not deter me from wanting one..!!!!!!!!
