Default Book - Formation of the royal Armoured Corps

Help, does anybody have a copy of this, privately published 11 pages, booklet entitled,

"The Formation of the Royal Armoured Corps" by A J Mac Donald?

If so I dearly love to obtain a scanned copy from you.

Default Formation RAC.

Unfortunately I'm unable to do the scanning ( I am 93 next week) but I'm sending my copy to Dick ASAP to copy and return. I believe the Author has passed away I think I have one of the first publication from him;I and a BAYS mate have added our expieriences to it I don't think there were many if any published. All I can do is see on its return.
The cover picture is my design I think that is the only one.

93? Outstanding! You don't have any trouble with technology. My father is in his eighties and can't manipulate a mouse.

It's not the 'tech' side of the scanning the problem but I had an accident last August and I'm not so quick as I was and it would take me ages .'''but we'll come up with something when I've sent it to Dick.....it's sealed in envelope waiting for someone to post it for me.probably do one page at a time and post on here or Facebook.......I MAY BE WRONG BUT I don't think there was a hard back I'm sure that Mack sent me loose pages.Phillip Herring.
