I do have a list somewhere of the wherabouts and status of a lot of Farley Mowatts bringbacks. If I come accross the list I'll check it. Last I saw it was in the glovebox of my M38A1, but I cleaned the glovebox out last summer so now I will have to look for it.

The list did prove handy previously. I retrieved a Flakveirling form the local scrapyard, and was preparing the receivers (cutting them) so the unit could be exported. I saw some serial numbers that I had not seen before, walked over to the Jeep and got the list. Sure enough, it was a Mowatt bring back. It had been scrapped at some time in the early 70s along with a Flak36 and languished in the scrapyard for some 40 years.
