Locating the CWM .30-cal Turret
The Tank Museum in Bovington, England also has a Ram I that they have marked as a 1st Canadian Armoured Carrier Regiment vehicle.
The .30-cal turret came from the CFB Kingston training area in the mid 1990s. Barry Beldam had spotted it and showed me the location. The turret was in a debris field of FT17 running gear and tracks located behind the rifle range. The photographs show how the turret was situated and its' excellent condition once it was rolled over. I was responsible for putting the CWM onto the FT17 parts and .30-cal turret making the necessary arrangements for Range Control to allow access.
