The RCT had DUKW's in Singapore in the late 60's they were so tatty that when some swam to Singapore from Blackang Mati island for a 'factory' rebuild they were found to be so rusty that they were banned from swimming back. The irony was that they were so big and cumbersome that they could hardly negotiate the roads in Singapore! Turning circle just wouldn't cope! We did go to an offshore Island in one once for a fishing trip, a few beers and a general jolly-boys outing arranged by Dave Lee the unit Armourer - another ex Carlisle boy.
