Fantastic video Jim. Wish I could have had a ride in one. Like Ranrad we only had the M113's in my time. But I prefer tracks. Ha ha

Hi Boys
The thanks I get from you is appreciated. Really I Miss going xcountry in the back of a 3/4 with a C2 mounted on the roof like we did in Gagetown 1962. That was exciting cause you wondered who was going to be thrown out. I didn't have a camera then, we all waited till the camera jockey, Bob Summerville was there to take your photo. Oh the memories you get and the memories don't stop.

Jim,
Great video! I would love to have a ride in that machine! Speaking of the 3/4 ton and the C2, and who was going to get thrown off lol, reminded me of the 106 recoiless rifle on a jeep on the Anti-tank course. There were a few hang on for dear life moments on the jeep as well!

Hi John
You should ask Nelson Bishop to loose a passanger out of a 1/4 ton jeep. He may not tell you straight out but lets say the Pl Comd wasn't hurt too bad after he kept on telling Nelson to stop here not 50 yds later. Well Nelson pushed the brake with everything he had and the poor Pl Comd went tearing across the front of the jeep for about 15 ft. Oh ohhhh!!##%^&$%*&
