Hello all,

I'm trying to reserch clours and markings for Bren Carriers used by the Perth Regiment in Italy.

The Perth's were part of the 5th Canadian Armoured Division.

If anybody knows of resources, I would greatly appreciate the info!

Jeff I suggest you register here and put your request in the carrier forum. This site is an excellent source of information on Canadian and allied military material.

Jeff

The unit tac markings for the Perth Regt. were a green square with the number 61 in it. They were with the 11th Cdn Inf. Brigade, 5th Cdn Armoured Div.

Archer Fine Transfers have an excellent sheet of tac markings available.
