(From the Armor Modelling and PReservation Society Website)

Snip: "These pictures were taken in March, 1999 at Vimy House in Ottawa, Ontario. The 88 was "stored" in a bog on a firing range in Quebec for the past 30 years. It is now in the process of being restored, and once completed, will be placed on display at the indoor facility at Vimy House."

Wow- in my own backyard....who'da thunk it.

stored in a bog...for shame!
