NEW THIS WEEK – MONDAY 8 JUNE 2009

Hello again and welcome once more to the weekly posting of what is new on Miliblog this week.

A big hello to all our colleagues in Poland this week, the statistics tell me many of you have visited over the past week. I’ll have a look at through the photos waiting to be added and see if I can find some Star trucks.

Well how is everyone out there in military vehicle land ? Did those who went to Normandy enjoy themselves and make it back without any serious breakdowns ? Reading many of the MV magazines, some say that now the Normandy trip is over, they expect an increase in the number of vehicles being sold. It will be interesting to see and monitor over the next few months.

Well we’ve changed slightly the batch of photos added this week to Miliblog. They have mostly been photos of either preserved vehicles or those in current service. Well this week they are original WW2 photos of the vehicles in action or at the factory. You’ll find them under Original photos section and Vehicles of the British section. Below are some examples to whet your appetite. One other addition is a nice Dodge WC-63 6×6 Weapons Carrier which has been civilianised and owned by Panes or Ranes Garage. Looks like a Scammell Explorer behind it too. As far as I can make out, the sign post says the A404, which according to the map is near Marlow in Bucks. Can anyone out there help with more local information ?

Anyway, wish you all a good week and a sample of this week’s new stuff is below

Cheerio !
