Soviet ASU-57

[Darrell Zinck]

Hi Dana

I suspected that was for me!!

I wonder if Barry has a scheme for it's Egyptian look.
I was just talking to him yesterday about markings on our post war Shermans!! I'll have to email him again and pick his brain. I wonder what the Museum will want in light of this new info from you. Thanks very much for your help.

You and as many as you like can come whenever you want to look around. My "collection" is not much and the ASU etc actually belong to the Museum. We (the RCD) have two Lynxes C&RV, two Ferrets Mk 1's, a Centurion Mk 5 and A Leo C1 on otdoor display in our lines. By end August we'll have the Bren Carrier out there too and of course Radley Walter's "Gift" Sherman is still here. Our Sherman is going out to the Highway today and just needs some touch-ups. All the other vehicles are at the Museum outdoor display area.

I'd be happy to act as a guide but make it soon as I'm posted to Moncton 3rd week in Aug. My summer leave is mid-Jul to Mid-Aug and would be the best time to come as the Canada Day celebs and Openings will be dne by then. Be advised the RCHA has re-done their display guns (105mm C1(M101), Pak38, Pak 40, FH 18, and Flak 36) up in some nice new schemes. Also most if not all of the CMP's and other Ech vehs have been cleaned up as well.

regards
Darrell
