This was the first of several IEDs that they would hit during their tour. My son heard through the grapevine that this RG has being returned to Canada and will be placed on display at the Canadian War Museum.

P.S. His platoon arrived back home on the 5th of February.
John...If this has merit in being a fact...then I hope that vehicle is displayed right beside the bullet-ridden Iltis in which two Reservists were injured during Op Palladium in Bosnia. (...and you know damn well who fired the shots!)
