This book, Volume 1 in a series of four, describes and illustrates
the colors and markings used by the British army on its vehicles
during the 20th century. The three chapters cover the following
topics: Chapter 1 Colors and Sources, Chapter 2 Paint and
Camouflage up to 1939, and Chapter 3 Registrations, War Department
numbers and Census Marks. The book is filled throughout with
photos, color profiles, and meticulous drawings. It describes in
detail the official paint schemes, the variations often seen in
practice, and the individual and unit markings applied to tanks,
armored cars, lorries and smaller vehicles, and towed guns. The
series will prove invaluable for military enthusiasts and modelers,
making sense of a very confusing topic! Dick Taylor is a serving
British Army officer who has been deployed in many areas of the
world. Since being commissioned in 2000, he has specialized in tank
gunnery instruction, Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear
operations, Psychological Operations, and lately, defense
exporting. He has a First Class degree in History, and is currently
working towards a Master's degree at Dundee University. He is
married with two sons and lives in Blandford, Dorset.
