Do you know what year it left Penhold?

I was a mechanic, and sent there in 1984 in support of the Air Cadet Camp. The base was having an airshow, and I got tasked with dragging an old forlorn deuce out of the disposal compound so the Chinook could have something to lift and carry. Possible it was this same truck. Too many years have passed for me to remember the paint scheme on the one I worked on, but I did salvage the interior rear view mirror from it. I had never seen the mirror installed on any other Canadian deuce. The mirror still resides not too far from me.
