Dieppe Churchill Color

Canadian Churchill’s that took part on the Raid, were painted in KG # 3 and they had silver interior during this time. Silver was used through the war for British built armoured vehicles, and white was only used for a short time, and then switched back to silver. Proper research will point anyone in the correct directions, with great reference to use : The Churchill Tank and the Canadian Armoured Corps, by Mark Tonner, CD and Camouflage of Canadian Armoured Vehicles in WW2 by Steve Guthrie and Barry Beldam.
