The 1967 delivery CDN2 series was probably the most common 'on the floor' during my reserve service. The CDN3s were later and less numerous. The 1953 CDN1s were all gone by 1976.

The w/winch was definitely less numerous. Although there were a few soldiers trusted to use the winch, for the most part it was just a heavy lump on the front end and an extra internal lever.
