8th Army "Desert Rats" Motor Company (BRAB01)
British Motor Company Army Box for Mid War 

The riflemen of the 8th Army are hardy desert veterans skilled in navigating vast featureless expanses in the North African Desert, finding their foe, and defeating them.

They are well supported by the new Sherman heavy tanks and the fast Crusader light tanks, making them a very powerful strike force!
When they are not raiding the enemy in well-armed ‘Jock Columns’, the Motor Companies dig in, forming all-round defensive positions on which enemy attacks falter and break.
This boxed set contains all the models shown in the organisational diagrams below.
