Hi Terry, Thanks for the information. I have reached out to 12 RBC; I have yet to hear back as of yet. I contacted the Canadian War Museum and they sent me to the National Archives; I have a query into them and waiting on a response. I will check the 12RBC Facebook page and see if anything turns up on that front.

When in doubt, rush of wildly in all directions...

Don't expect much from the 12eRBC unit of 2018/19. None of those guys were around when the Ferrets were in service; probably not even born for many of them. But, the regiments all have an old comrades association, sort of a mafia, that support each other and various activities. The FB page is going to catch a similar slice of the personalities, only these ones are willing to be on social media.

Hi Ed , do you have anything on 70-08710 , serial 99870 ?

Hi Ed. By chance is there anything recorded for M101CDN 53-73510?

Thanks!

M101 53-73510 Serial 510 was manufactured by Olsen and disposed of from CFB Chatham in February 1991.

Thanks Ed. Much appreciated!

On a slightly related note, does anybody know if there is another location where a CFR maybe located on an Iltis apart from the Data plate next to the steering wheel. Reason being I think my Iltis may have been repaired or some parts swapped after it was released from the Army. I researched the CFR 88113, and it seems to have spent most of it's time with a medical and air force unit in Quebec but I have indications on on the windshield that it spent time with a Armored/Artillery unit. None of which where mentioned in the freedom on information reply I received from the government
Thanks

Ed Storey · #10 06-05-19, 17:58

All I know is that it was disposed of in 1989 from CFB Petawawa.

302Trooper · #11 07-05-19, 00:32

Ed,

Thats better than no info. I have collected all the parts now for a complete machine. I found a NOS hood and belly pan. Between the two machines I have i can make a correct one.
Thanks for the help

I'm wondering if someone can check for the CFR and available info for a buddy's Iltis and trailer.

Iltis: CFR 86800
Trailer: Serial 0245

Assistance Is greatly appreciated!

Ed Storey · #13 14-07-19, 16:23

Iltis CFR 86800 was disposed of out of CFB Shilo in August 2006 while trailer M101CDN2 Serial 0245 CFR 16019 belonged to 17 (Winnipeg) Service Battalion and was disposed of in July 2005.

Josh Mordarski · #14 14-07-19, 19:14

Awesome, thanks Ed! That's neat to see one of our guys actually has some local equipment
