Question Re: Tanks

George;

I had heard a month or two ago, that both the RCD and 12 RBC were losing their tanks, apparently all the tanks are going to the LdSH, who'll be a 3x Squadron Leopard equipped Regiment, with the RCD and 12 RBC reverting to light armoured vehicles. The only tank squadron that will be left, east of Alberta, is the Squadron in Gagetown, in support of the Armoured School.

Your right, it is a very sad state of affairs, one bloody tank equipped regiment and than you have to think, how many of them are actually runners?

Ottawa spend money on the Forces, especially this current Government............their still trying to figure out what our troops on exchange are doing.

Through the mud and the blood, to the green fields beyond.............there went the Royal Canadian Armoured Corps and another piece of the Canadian Army's history down the drain.
