Welcome.

Have a look in the photo gallery.

You may also need to be more specific, what year, what theatre. British military dress can sometimes be a little different at times.

You are unlikely to get many colour photos. You may also find it quicker to search for pictures of tanks as opposed to tank crew.

Dear Sergeant Major
The teather is European, the year from 1943 up 1945 I have a look in the gallery,but I really need a close up of the arms badges on the tunic(their positions)
Thanks anyway for your help and suggestions.

Try the regimental sites, they have lots of photos from the old and bold.

This is only one

and from it came these very good image of the victory parade in Berlin.

but you will see from most of the combat photos they did not often have insignia

and if in tank suit none at all.
