GADZOOKS!!! We'll all have to get used to writing 'CMP' out in full - Canadian Military Pattern - to avoid the inevitable legal threats from GM!!

Just when you thought it was safe to get back in the water .....

Seriously, like Phil, it was the thing in the advert that jumped out at me: CMP as a currently registered trademark, and nothing to do with its real meaning.

Claims by vehicle builders sometimes take no notice of the past. When the Bushmaster IMV was first being touted about, it was claimed to be the first armoured military vehicle built in Australia. Errr.... wrong, Guys, try two armoured cars in WW1, or the armoured cars of the 1930s, or the tanks, carriers and armoured cars of the 1940s .....

Mike
