Do you have any info Rob about the DND duration of use with the old stake trucks?
The CD trucks look like a mix of Mercury and International so I'm wondering how many Stake Trucks got passed down to CD?
It is known that at some point DND used the Deuce to pull supplies and re-supply the military bunker system. What I'm still curious about are photos and memories of those that helped supply the "Municipal, Provincial and Federal" bunkers we keep finding around the country. Here is the link to 'one' buried hospital in Medicine hat.

We do have some documentation on the Canada Health purchase of "new" trucks but we're still pinning down a more complete CD fleet.
