But that's part of the fun - see post 2999. And Orm got one of my questions on second guess - when I did a Norwegian destroyer.

NO, a totally incorrect question.
51 Highland was part of the British Army and included a large number of English (and Welsh & Irish) soldiers.
It never fought as a Motorised Division beyond the normal British Infantry Division standards.
