Thanks for that extra information Greg!

Of course it's possible that the world is ruled by numerical connection. I have seen the A as standing for Austria or Armistice sometimes, but of course that only works for English speakers, not the Austrians or Bosnians. Also why the date of the Western Front armistice particuarly? Of course that date was of major importance to the Western Powers but not so much in the Blakns and former KuK empire. Wouldn't it be equally spooky if it named the date of the St. Germain treaty when Austria-Hungary singed the peace, or Versailles Treaty? Or even Gavrillo's birth date or death date, or Franz Ferndinand's birth date, or the date of the A-H ultimatum to Serbia, or the A-H attack on Serbia or any other numbers of dates that could be considered to be notable? Or maybe the manufacturer only made a small number od cars and designated them all, 11 11 11, then 11 11 12 and this was the eight car or eighteenth if he started with 11 11 01? It is interesting specualtion though and thanks for your comment?

@@chrisdale-militaryhistoryok good

Thanks mate, so glad you're enjoying them!

Thanks for that extra peice of information, much appreciated.

Yes mate, totally makes sense. But there's no big cities to defend West of Lampeter. Maybe to defend the docks at Fishguard and Pembroke? But even they'd be pretty redundant if Bristol and Birmingham had already gone. Also note it's on the west side of the Teifi, so it's not like their plan was to defend against a landing on the West Welsh coast, or they'd have put it on the Cwmann side.

Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it. Feel free to subscribe for more.

Thank you for watching, I've got plans to visit the sites of more Welsh history soon.

Yes, I was quite surprised by the variety of their collection too.

It could become one next time I'm up there. I did have a look around modern Maesyfelin of course there's nothing left of the old manor house there but there is a curious old cottage on the corner of Mill street called Y Felin. So as its name suggests this I guess this would have been the old millhouse of the estate. Can't see anything else left of it. Do you know any more about it?

Thanks mate, we must have played around there as kids...

Thanks for that information, very interesting.

😆😆😆

It's really well worth a visit. I was amazed by the display.

The Irish Defence Forces bought several Swedish tanks and armoured cars in the late 1930's in an attempt to build up an elementary armoured force. These vehicles have nothing to do with Irish or Swedish service in ONUC/UNOC

That's a terrible shame. It's a large museum, they definitely have the space to display more.

So glad you liked the video. It's not a massive museum but well worth a visit!

Thanks mate. That was certainly the highlight of the trip!

Thank you, yes it's an amazing museum. It was even better than I'd hoped.

It's well worth a look!

Thanks for the tip. I'm hopefully visiting Copenhagen next month so I'll check it out if I get a chance.

I had that same Osprey book and it was a great inspiration to me too.

Thank you very much for that extra information about your great grandfather!

Thanks for sharing that interesting family history.

Thanks for the comment, I'll try to improve on future videos.

Sorry I can't film everything in detail. I'm just hoping to give you a quick look at what they have on display.

@@chrisdale-militaryhistory Thank You 😀👍👍

Thanks for the comments, I'll take note and slow down in future videos.

Thanks glad you liked it. It was a real suprise of a museum to me.

My goodness this place hasn’t changed since I was 11 years old. I am 40 now. 😅. Very happy memories of this place and my many visits during my childhood.

From Wiki The film Zulu (1964), produced by Stanley Baker, portrays the Battle of Rorke's Drift.[58] The film received generally positive reviews from the critics. Some details of the film's account are, however, historically inaccurate (for example, in the movie the regiment is called the South Wales Borderers, but the unit was not in fact called that until two years after the battle, although the regiment had been based at Brecon in South Wales since 1873).[59] While most of the men of the 1st Battalion, 24th Regiment of Foot (1/24) were recruited from the industrial towns and agricultural classes of England, principally from Birmingham and adjacent southwest counties, only 10 soldiers of the 1/24 that fought in the battle were Welsh. Many of the soldiers of the junior battalion, the 2/24, were Welshmen.[60] Of the 122 soldiers of the 24th Regiment present at the Battle of Rorke's Drift, 49 are known to have been of English nationality, 32 were Welsh, 16 were Irish, one was a Scot, and three were born overseas. The nationalities of the remaining 21 are unknown.[61]

Thanks. Yes, it's well worth a visit!

My videos are only intended as a brief view, sorry I can't do them at a tenth the speed. This video is over 18mins, ten times the length would be three hours and more.

Thanks mate!

I'm sure you'll enjoy the visit.
