Another view of the same Kangaroo during the ceremony. The example was recovered from an artillery range in the U.K. and restored by a dedicated team of Dutch enthusiasts specifically for this monument. Ex-Kangaroo Tpr. Art Bell was the regimental representative present this day, and laid a wreath in honour of fallen comrades.

For more information on the recovery and restoration of this machine, and on the dedication ceremony itself, please see the Historical Section of the extensive site MAPLE LEAF UP (this link also found in our Links page...)
