Sure, it's on its way to St. Thomas (Elgin Regt.) for the 'Kangaroo's' guidon presentation this weekend. 60-odd years late but the Regiment will finally get their colours.

It's the Kangaroo at the CWM. I am glad to see it has come a long way via the UK, Netherlands, Belgium and then to Canada and was restored in time to spice up the Kangaroo Guidon Ceremony Sept 10/2011 !

I was driving 5 people all with a CF connection and we all recognised it instantly.

According to my sources it was a slog to get it finished in time for the event

I am really glad that the 1CACR are finally getting their Guidon and that the CWM is participating by providing this de-turreted Ram. But this early model RAM was never used as a Kangaroo by Canada. However, that shouldn't deter from the ceremony.
