    I searched recently using "6 RTR" site:ww2talk.com and it returned a number of threads - you just want those for Italy in September 1944. You can amend the content of ".." so "6 Royal Tank" may return different threads. You would have to check which ones help and then read them.

    You can also use the tag system, not everyone uses that when starting a thread. Try 6RTR in the forum's search engine first!

    See Post 427 for Drew obtaining their War Diaries (in part) in 2013, he may still have a copy - for a reasonable fee. See: Anyone require War Diaries or other files from the National Archives?

    An old 2011 thread: 6 RTR map needed of piandicastello and tavoleto area

    Pretty sure there is a current thread on 1st Sussex. Good luck!
