Default Residue

I have actually seen the said "residue" at the new owners site, its a chasis cab with no upper cab and no rear box. With some work and some magpie collecting of various junk he will make one machine in time.

I have first hand reports of a complete runner with SEV van body that was scrapped. The guys were told to junk it so did. I got there about 4 hours too late.

There had been plans to replace them by 2010, but as with any fleet replacement program in the CF, this has gone to the back burner due to real priorities. A soft skin B vehicle is not a priority during a war. Any we have here in KAF now are simply used in lieu of other suitable transport, or may perform minor workshop duties at best. They are not a fighting vehicle, and do not leave the front gate of the camp unless loaded on a flatbed.
