Canadian Ferrets 1975 CFB Meaford
Here are some somewhat grainy images from Mike Jackson.
He shot 16mm at the time and has managed to capture some stills and they are reproduced here.
The interesting details I picked out were the ammo bin on rear right fender, not sure if it is bolted on but I somewhat suspect it is.
Then the telphone wire spool mounted on the side as er the modification instruction and another with one just hangin down front.
The Call sign placards are great, not seen those on Ferrets before in the CF. Wonder if that was a Meaford thing or just 8th Hussars thing?
Love the Ferrets loaded in the backs of the trucks, interesting it is not the smaller capacity deuce but the bigger American version with dual rears wheels
