The Borden Panther

[Jon Skagfeld]

I have a similar picture of that Panther, along with pics all the other tanks along Armour Row in Worthington Park before they were re-distributed around the Base.(Apparently an RCD CWO named Angus was responsible for the re-distribution as well as the re-painting with that ghastly gloss grey/green/whatever colour).

It's been in the back of my mind to slide down to Borden and see what has been wrought. I wonder if the Hetzer is still around? Last I saw of it, it was inside one of the hangars in the old Armoured School lines.

This Panther is indeed in the hands of the CWM in Ottawa and has been on display since 2009. It was cosmetically restored (including new zimmerit) and can be found in the LeBreton Gallery, which is mainly an indoor tank park. I took a few pictures and will post them soon.

Here are some photos of the Panther I took back in May 2008 at the CWM.
