<\/a><\/p>\nOur truck entered service on 7th May 1991, with the license plate 31KJ56. With her first four years being spent at JSCS Ashchurch outside of Tewksbury, Gloucestershire in the UK.<\/p>\n
In March 1995, she moved to Canada to the British Army Training Unit Suffield (BATUS) in Alberta. She spent the next 15-years in training exercises. From May to October each year she was used on the sandy plains of Alberta, before undergoing a full service and put into storage over the winter.<\/p>\n
Judging by the multiple paint colours we have found she was most likely used as an OPFOR (Opposition Force) vehicle by the 105 Logistic Support Squadron of the Royal Logistics Corps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
