Puckapunyal Beach Armoured Recovery Vehicle

For good measure, here is a picture of an Armoured Bulldozer, also made by Caterpillar and converted by the British, but used for other purposes than the Tractor.

Hi Mike,

Sent an email to AMB a week ago, no reply yet. Maybe an old fashion letter will work. I think I need to write to the Tank Museum as well. I heard Puckapunyal is currently closed to the public, but maybe someone is reading the mail.

It might be a few months before post again. But I will see what I can find out.
