Stalwart Fan

I was delighted to see the Stalwart on the cover of Issue 212 of CMV for a number of reasons. Like you I had the Matchbox BP Stalwart in my childhood and always marvelled at this unique vehicle. Twenty or so years later I had a brief sojourn with the army and indicated that I’d like to join the Royal Corps of Transport (RCT) upon commissioning: the army felt otherwise and ‘suggested’ that an Infantry career beckoned.
