Hi
It has always been my understanding that the Ram tank was named after the "Father" of our Armoured Corps, MGen FF Worthington.
Like the badge used for the 1st Canadian Army Tank Brigade, the Ram animal figures from Worthington's Family crest.
The badge use and the tank naming were ways to recognize Worthy's contributions to the creation of "Armour" in Canada.
Of course, I could be completely out to lunch on that!
regards
Darrell
