Always appreciate your work on all things Leopard and Marder.  So many interesting variations to share.

Follow me on this.

The Canadians sent the Mexas to Afghanistan in 2006.

This story takes place in 2007, the infantry grunt narrator identifed the armor unit as 1) British and 2) equipped with Challengers but since the British didn't send Challengers to Afghanistan and the Mexas has the L7 (as mentioned in the story) I think we know who the real culprits were.  ;)

Without going through it again (No, I don't like the Venga Boys, either) they seemed to go by the callsign "Leopard"/"Leopard 2", which may also be a bit of a hint as to what popped around the corner. ;)

There is that, but I didn't want to be Captain Obvious again
