M113A1 in Fort York 1970

[Ed Storey]

Very intereting photograph of the M113A1s when they were only 4 years old. The trailer is an M104 11/2 ton trailer.

The three are painted in the proper Canadian cam pattern of the day. The fourth is someone's freestyle interpretation.

What's the truck in the background?

Something German.

Ft York was near Stockum, FRG (somewhere east of the Ruhr valley) and home to battalions from Central Canada either Guards or RCR. Sean Maloney's book War Without Borders describes the layout of the 1CIBG units and their little forts as, dispersing a brigade group in Kingston, Belleville and Gananoque, with the HQ in Smiths Falls.
