On Sunday Dennis and I went to see a Military Vehicle display in our local area. For part of his National Service he was out in Korea, with the Royal Army Service Corps. and we managed to buy a replacement cap badge for the one he'd lost (or I'd lost!!), also a black beret to display the badge when he goes on parade with the North East London Korean Vets. Association.
He was delighted to see this lorry, having driven a similar one whilst serving in Korea. Then double excitement when we saw the gun as he'd been responsible for a similar one, again in Korea.
The lorry is an AEC Matador.
Must have been a memory filled excursion !
