British Infantry Division, 1944
A 6 pdr anti-tank gun of a divisional anti-tank regiment. The Airfix model of the 6 pdr has been spray-painted Humbrol 159 »Khaki Drab«, tinted with 30 % white. Anti-tank regiments had four batteries of twelve guns each. The battery consisted of three troops with four guns in two sections. Anti-tank regiments of infantry divisions were equipped with 6 pdr anti-tank guns, to be replaced by the more powerful 17 pdr anti-tank guns as they became available. In addition to the divisional anti-tank assets, each infantry battalion had an anti-tank platoon with three sections of two 6 pdr anti-tank guns. The 6 pdr anti-tank gun was served by two Lloyd Carriers. Vehicles carried numbered and colour-coded Tac Signs on the right fender. The two-coloured tac signs shown below were actually arranged with the first colour above the second colour, not adjacent to each other.
