I own this Ferret 54-82598 and I am trying to find photos, paperwork mentioning it and former crewmembers from its time in military service 1954 - Jan 1980.
Sanding down I found the CAR / CFR number on the starbaord side of the hull and also above the driver's escape hatch. I also found Canada flags in colour, the outline of a Mobile Command decal,
1. LdSH(RC) markings
2. And underneath paint layers, Combat Arms School (two designs in two sizes - varying in Intfantry third and also placement of artillery third.)
As well there was camouflage paint pattern, and Bridge sign in black only as well as in yellow.
There was shipping information stencilled on the glacis plate.
25 CANADIAN FORCES SUPPLY
DEPOT 6565 (?) NOTRE DAME
ST MONTREAL QUE CANADA
Where was this depot? Does this tell us where the vehicle came from or was going?
