Does anyone have any details of the vehicles used by the 17/21st Lancers during WW2.
I have just purchased the Academy M3 Honey,and would like to make it up as used by this regiment.Or failing that,as used by Lord Strathconas Horse,the sister regiment to the Lancers.TIA....Dave

I'm not aware of the 17th/21st having used the M3 "Honey". The tanks I have come across were the Matilda & Valentine while in training and anti-invasion duty after returning to the UK from India. Then Valentine & Crusader, before converting to Shermans while serving in Tunisia.

This site may help.

Cheers Geoff,clicked on the link,very interesting.Feel quite ashamed really being an ex 17th Lancer.Didn't know there was an association for the regiment,am now considering joining.
All the best....Dave
