Ammo pouches in Winnipeg

[guyvapeur]

I was born in Winnipeg.... and I saw Princess Auto start up with mostly military surplus tires, hydraulics, vehicle parts and fields full of unopened crates. I can remember when Panet road was the main road to Dugald road where my grandfather lived. I remember the new **Lagimodiere Blvd.** being built which now skirted the rear of Princess Auto. A railroad overpass would give you a vantage view of the yard. My dad would point out an old army truck and state that he was sure he had driven it during the war.
Yet today when I go to Winnipeg, Princess Auto is one of my main tourist attractions. The Winnipeg store is the hub of their operation and I have seen unique military items that do not make it out to the other stores.
