Default Borden Iltis

According to my research there were 13 German manufactured Iltis employed by the CF. The initial four Basic Iltis were brought to Canada in 1982 and were subsequently disposed of in 1987-88. Four German Light Field Ambulances was used in Canada from 1982 until disposal in 86-88 and another that was acquired in 1985 and again used in Canada and perhaps ending up in Lahr until disposal in 1987. There were a final four German Iltis used from 1984 and disposed from 1998-2005. The Borden Iltis appears to be one of these four (CFR 87850) that was disposed of by the CF in 2003.

Here is a photograph of VW manufactured Basic Iltis 46411 that I took at CFB Rockcliffe in 1985.
