By the stage of the war you could see the abundance of equipment readily available to the British Army.

Cool vid ! Is that a Bren boarding a buffalo at the start ?

[@dartmaster501]

Yes, in the description.

[@trikkke11]

@@dartmaster501 How could I have missed the comment in the intro ?! I must have been drunk with the visual information I was getting...

[@Samknstuff]

Well a universal carrier but their basically the same thing only minor differences

[@Samknstuff]

And I know they said it was a Bren carrier but the name carried on even after the universal carrier was introduced

[@28pbtkh23]

Those poor souls were carrying an awful lot of kit. Hard grind.

[@AgeShallNotWearyThem]

Amazing, sniper fires 2 shots from a Lee Enfield bolt action without reloading. Wow, nice propaganda acting. That is all….out.

[@andrewcharles459]

Maybe he just had the hiccups. 😂

[@H4nik0rei]

@@andrewcharles459 He may have hiccups or trying to make a better angle and position, I’m sure he wasn’t shooting because there is no gun flash or if not smoke coming out of the gun barrel.
