Default Kiwi in Korea

I was given the original years ago....the photo was taken by the deceased father of a friend.

He said the recovery was a failure....twice they lost the tank down the bank so it was stripped of its armament and abandoned.

Default 2 more

as I delve deeper into the personal archives......

what a load of rubbish......with a few treasures.

I'm getting the feeling these were taken in Waiouru?

Default Recovery training

It looks like recovery training in Waiouru allright, either in Browns bog or in the deep creek out by Waitang. I have pulled APC's out of there........ Time difference of maby 50 years!

I would like to pull out a stewart tho.......... Sadly only things there are rusted out RL bedford chassis
