These various vehicles from the M113 series have finally been lined up at The Military Museums in Calgary. Lots of great examples of wear & tear, weathering, and paint schemes. Some of the vehicles have Tac signs from units in 2 CMBG in Petawawa.

I hope they'll be spread out a little more, or is this just a temporary thing? Great line-up!

I think the plan is to build a large indoor display area to park a variety of vehicles....M113s, Leopards, AVGPs, etc...over an extended period of time.

The vehicles were spread out over at the 41 Brigade compound for a couple of years and I think they are just storing them in the tight line temporarily as this is part of the regular parking lot for the museum. Hopefully they remain painted as is and not overcoated in standard monument green.

I hear they will be up for monument duty soon. It would be great to have one preserved along with the rest of the M-113 fleet

Yup....sure looks that way...
