About this book:
Text and captions are dual German and English. This book includes 144 color photos, several of which are full page, allowing lots of detail, and even the smaller ones are clearly printed. The range of equipment, color schemes, and finishes is very wide, giving lots of reference material and ideas for straight models and dioramas. Today’s British Army includes three Close Support Engineer Regiments which are tasked to operate with Armored Brigades. This book covers one of them, the 32 Engineer Regiment. It briefly describes their history then gives organization details and what equipment its component parts use, before launching into a photo-study of that equipment which takes up most of the book. In addition to the armor are the range of non-armored vehicles from Harley-Davidson motorcycle, a very nice Vectra for the boss to use when not being tactical, various Land-Rovers, assorted Bedford trucks, Leyland DROPS, heavy cranes and recovery vehicles, bridge carriers and the ABLE wheeled bridge launcher, several load handling and digger vehicles in green. There is even a look into the future with glimpses of the next generation of armored and softskin vehicles about to enter service.
