Tracing history of a British Army landrover
« on: Friday 09 June 17 20:43 BST (UK) »
Hi...

Does anyone know if it is possible to trace the service history of a military vehicle - specifically a British Army landrover.  I don't have reg number to hand but is possibly 1970s era.  It has an ID plate on the side with some numbers on it.  The owner doesn't have any army release papers for it but bought it recently from someone legitimately (not army )

Any thoughts welcome

thanks

Milly

They are the best bet
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.
