==History==
The brigade was raised from garrison troops stationed in North Africa in 1938.〔 It was initially known as the Light Armoured Brigade which was part of the Mobile Division in Egypt.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of the British 7th Armoured Brigade - Green Jerboa )〕
When the Mobile Division became 7th Armoured Division, the Light Armoured Brigade became the 7th Armoured Brigade in February 1940. The 7th Armoured Division had a red jerboa (a nocturnal rodent indigenous to North Africa) as its emblem and became known as 'The Desert Rats'. The 7th Armoured Brigade, meanwhile, had a green jerboa as its emblem. The 7th Brigade became known as the 'Green Rats' or the 'Jungle Rats' after it moved to Burma in 1942.〔
