War diary of the 3rd Royal tank regiment

[Shermaninterest]

Somebody got a copy of this war diary? Iam interested in the Normandy campaign especially. Is there a general way to find British war diaries?

If anywhere they should be at the British Archives. I would suggest contacting Arcre.com.

It's there: WO 171/866.

WO 171 is for all war diaries. You'll find an excel-based catalog there.

First thing I would do is to try your luck on the British forum (http://ww2talk.com/forums/index.php), where several people copy/collect archives from the TNA.

If you can't go to London yourself, and absolutely need the material, you'd need to ask arcre.com or the other contact offering copy services.
