Sherman ARV at Camp Borden??

[Ed Storey]

The Canadian Army never used M74 ARVs; I believe this example is ex-Bundeswehr and it is painted in fictitious markings so as to mislead the uninformed masses.

Bill Mulholland (RIP) was instrumental in saving this ARV from becoming a hard target at Bergen Hohne and I believe it was Belgium ARV. It became his pet and was often seen behind the Leopard ARV being dragged around from range to range as A Sqn RCD was training for CAT 83. The Sgn returned to Lahr by tank train (man those where the days) but the ARV had to stay in Hohne till a gentlemens agreement was reached in a collection of CF badges for the ARV that was brought down by road. Once at Lahr the A Sqn mechs got it running, it even participated in the roll past for the 84 Leiliefontein.
