Hello mittra,

I hope it will be some helpful to you:



Dowództwo Oddziałów Zaopatrywania i Transportu - Command of the Supply and Transport Units

In the center, the marking: 954II - 40

This red triangle could stand for the 1st Squadron of the 4th Armoured Regiment "Skorpion".

Konrad

Thanks so much for this important help! and the two letters D.A are the initials of a name of the Command?

mjr Dzięciołowski Antoni ? possible

[conrado]

Hello mittra,

Captain/Major Antoni Dzięciołowski was the Commander of the 3rd Squadron, not 1st.

Maybe some other forum member will be able to help you more.

Hello there everyone!

I have checked information from the book above:
As I understood soldier from the mittra's post served for sure inside 1st Squadron of the 4th Armoured Regiment "Skorpion" most of all inside one of the units from Armored repair service(Czołówka naprawcza). Konrad was absolutly right in his answer above.
Post for your observe all images available about this regiment from the book:







Think that the number 954II-40 most of all was his vehicle number or may be but not sure it can be his pesonal army #(954/II).
First version you can try to check Unit Chronicles of 4th Armored Regiment via PISM in London. It should include information about all vehicles and thier soldiers.
Please check how is it possible to start the online request:
Send Research Enquiry | PISM
Second versione please ask Andrzej kindly check for you the recipients numbers from 28989-29672.

Hello there Antony!

Unfortunatly this book do not include such information, but you still possible to find that inside 6th armoured regiment "children of Lwow" unit chronicles (Please contact PISM in London, information above)
Also if you have some photos of your father's crew somethere near his tank think I can help you to identify his squadron.
