Hi Colin

Good spot. Yes, it is a numeral rather than a letter.

Notably, that same Wiki page suggests, by comparison (IE 1947), that my plate may be a numeral prefix vice a letter.<idea>

I have to watch that video a little closer later tonite.....8CH NCOs, RCD Officer(?), FF Worthington and LGen Fleury's medals.....

*edit* So I did watch the rest. Very good. He was an RCD Offr. Area & Armd/Sqn Tac Signs on the wheeled vehs and the Shermans. A convenient "43" in front of one of the veh #. There must has been a shortage of canvas makers (Mat Techs?) at the time or that Sherman was going into or just out of storage of some sort!

And it brings a tear to see Export A Plain as the smoke of choice for those old Blackhats. Sniff.


regards
Darrell

Gentlemen,

I've just found the photo below in my archives. An APC equipped with the SS-11 missile system. It has an Ontario plate on the bow. Thought it might be of interest.

Default M113A1CDN with SS11B1

Great photograph of an interesting modification of the M113A1CDN and the vehicle 65-35012 was disposed of out of 25 CF Depot, Montreal.
