I went to the range today (100klm one way) afterwards I snapped these pair in the township. The Army retired our Leopard 1's a while ago and a few were farmed out to lucky towns across Australia. We are very fortunate to have one at Collie and another in Bunbury.
The Leopard has been there for 3-4 years and not long ago the APC arrived to compliment the MBT.
The Leopard may not share an affinity with some past and present members who have served but I am pretty sure here and across the ocean the APC will bring back perhaps some fond memories. I just wanted to share these with you as it is an honour to the towns acquiring them for the general public to view. The only sad part about it is some schmuck has smashed one of the prism view blocks on the tanks drivers hatch I guess some will forever be knuckle draggers.
