*** Despite its antiquated looks, the Marmon-Herrington armoured vehicle remained the mainstay of the British armoured car regiments in the Western Desert until 1942. Marmon-Herringtons were used by the Indian Army in the Middle East, and the British and Indians between them had almost 1200 vehicles. They stayed in service until the end of the Tunisian campaign, some of them being used also in Italy. The British had also used them in Malaya. The South Africa, the original and main user of the type, had over 4500 in total, and they were also used by the RAF for airfield defence in this region. *** Snipped from http://www.ipmsstockholm.org/magazine/2004/01/stuff_eng_ahlstrom_marmon_herrington.htm ----- Harshawardhan_Bosham Nimkhedkar Nagpur, India
