Hi all, I got these from a previous visit to the Canadian archives and thought it is past time that I should share, especially as I'm asking questions about British 2nd Army. I will see if I can find any earlier reports, and if so, post them here.
I believe A, B, and C classified vehicles according to their state of readiness. I assume C was something like "in workshop needing repairs". This would be the same system that the British used(?).
I believe the document/reference is: AFV RETURNS - Weekly AFV Returns 21 Jul/5 May, and 4 Aug 45 1st Cdn Army. - (30-15-1/CAC) 1945/05/05-1945/08/04. File. RG24-G-3-1-a. Volume/box number: 10459. File number: 212C1.1009 (D43).
