A convoy left Burghfield on the morning on March 6th and headed west on the M4 then up the A34 and onto the M40. Late morning it turned off on the A46 and went around the Coventry Eastern bypass before joining the M69. It turned off into Gamecock Barracks near Nuneaton for an hour at lunchtime. When it left again the convoy returned south on the same route to Burghfield arriving late afternoon.
