This book ' Contribution to Victory' by the Associated Equipment Co. was compiled and privately published by the then Chairman = Mr C. C. Reeve. It is a pictorial history of the various vehicles - some armoured - that were produced for the war effort and the post war years. The book belonged to Brian Albert Cutts. He was a close family friend of ours and when he died we acted as Power of Attorney for his wife Gladys. When Gladys died the house was cleared and this book was going to be destroyed. However, we thought it was of historical interest and should be saved. The photographs are of Harry Ernest Smith, my father, and were taken in 1945 in Belgium. He was in the 1st Royal Tank Regiment.
