Many thanks. I'll pass on your message to my estimable co-author in Brittany who does all the hard work. We still have this idea of persuading the publishers of Militaria to republish the Yeomanry series as one volume in both languages (but don't hold your breath). What came out of these years of study was the quite remarkable WW2 record of some of the Yeomanry regiments. A few such regiments left their regular Army counterparts in the shade. I'm thinking of, for example, the Staffordshire Yeomanry - from horsed cavalry in Syria to DD tanks in NW Europe and of course my Regiment - the Surrey Yeomanry - 98 Army Fd Regt RA from BEF to the Baltic via el Alamein and Italy.
