Hi Dale,

This is a wild guess, but it reminds me (setting it is in, not the carrier itself) of the one at the infantry museum in Singleton.

Default 2287

G'day Dale,
2287 is at the 11th light Horse Museum in the heritage village at Caboolture just north of Brisbane. It was originally in a camouflage finish but I think it was repainted for the "Welcome Home Parade" in Brisbane in 2010(?). The parade was for Brisbane based units that served in Afghanistan. Included in the parade was a tribute to four troops who had recently died in Afghanistan, a squadron of AUSLAVs and support vehicles of 2/14 Lighthorse Queensland Mounted Infantry. Also historical vehicles as used by 2/14th i.e. 2287, a white scout car and a M113A1 APC. Hope the pics turn out ok.

Pete

Hi Rick . Any action on 2250 yet ? must be next on the list . It would be nice to have mine and yours side by side one day . How cool would it be to have the missing 25 carriers between us . Dale
