Found this on F-Book today - not sure how pertinent it is, but it is a Training Cab Leo!

Sorry - in detail, group photo from a 1981 Advanced Driver and Maintenance Course in Gagetown.

Brad,

Why so many infantrymen on an advanced driver and maintenance course?

Cheers,
Dan.

The attached Infantry types would do the "common" portion of the course of wheels and tracks but not the tank unless they where seconded to the school. There was even a Engineer teaching D&M (as they have the Leo bridge layer), the idea was the Armour school being the self touted centre of excellence that instructors going through there would rise the level of D&M instruction for outside units................I am hardly convinced it ever rose to that ideal.
