Tanks of 3rd/4th County Of London Yeomanry 4th Arm. Brigade

Friends

I need infos about the tanks that were in service with the 3rd/4th COLY of the 4th Armoured Brigade, in March 1945 ( in special, which ones were used in the battles after the Rhine crossings ). Some sources suggest Shermans, other Churchill tanks...somewhere i read about Comets ???

Any help is welcome

regards
DK

The '17pdr do' is always under the '75mm Shermans' entry.
'do' means ditto and it simply means the word above (Sherman) should be there as well. i.e. '17 pdr do' means '17 pdr Shermans'
