    Chieftain AVRE with demolition gun.

    I've read that the Chieftain was supposed to have a demolition gun on its AVRE variant before it was cancelled. Does anyone know where I could find design drawings/models of this?

    Does anyone have a copy of "Wireless for the Warrior" by Meulstee?

    I'm putting together an article on the Wireless Set No. 10, which deserves to be MUCH better known - it was the first TDM and PCM comms system in the world. Sadly there is very little info on it, but I know that "Wireless for the Warrior" had a relatively detailed description including post-war...
