Iltis re-born

[Darrell Zinck]

Hi Craig

Good to hear from you again!! Yes, I'm off to the 8th Hussars in Moncton in late August. We'll have to marry-up sometime soon.

You are correct in your assessment of this "project" by our Wrenches in Afghanistan.

I also agree the LSVW ain't so bad and almost impossible to get stuck. Just like the Iltis was. You can't compare with a Gelandwagen, that's for sure. We got a good life out of the Iltis and if someone wants to use it as an AFV to patrol a warzone in, well, that's their mistake. Don't write them off just because they were being used in a role they weren't meant to fill. G-wagen ain't no bargain either. Maintainence is proving to be a bitch both here and there. Trust me, I just ran x2 dvr courses on them. Nice but again not comparable to the ole Iltis in alot of ways.

I think this mod job is great!!

regards
Darrell
