Running a check through each Leopard C1 record could reveal which tanks were used as trainers but this number may turn out to be 37.
Now which Ottawa landfill contains DNDs legacy Leopard files?

Simple. A gun tank is a gun tank regardless if it has a turret, or had that removed and replaced with a cab and set up to drive from the cab (which is a pretty cool experience). The cab
kit was not a vehicle nor a weapon system. Good point about the number 37 and maybe that being the number of tanks in the CF inventory that had worn the cab at some point to spread the mileages across the fleet.
