That's brilliant and very clear article. It matches to the most of the sources I have been reading about this subject, but gives more excact view and more details. 

 

Two French light tanks loaded in the train were those two FTs loaned from Finland. They were used as a separate platoon, that's why Hope Carson didn't talk much about them. 

 

The sixth Mk V without name has sometimes said to be "Brown Bear II". That would be a strange choice for a name because original "Brown Bear" was never lost!
