FORWARD
I have written this history in order that past and present members of 4th Armoured Brigade may have a record to remind them of the five years of fighting the brigade has seen. I cannot in this short account attempt to give a true picture of that time. That I hope will be provided by the memories which this record may recall. Much of it is taken from the personal memories of myself and others who took part in the campaigns or from the War Diary. I am indebted to Capt. A. MacLennan, RA, GSO 3 of the Brigade since January 1943, for the material for Chapter IV, Sicily and Italy. It is as accurate an account as I can write without becoming involved in a great deal of research. If inaccuracies are found, I hope they will be forgiven. I have not included any maps, as so many would be needed.
