Thanks Pete
Scott has got me pointed in the correct direction for a bit of detective work. The next step will be to see where this vehicle has traveled. the register of SVN vehicles would seem to only be the ones that have been damaged. Is there a way to find out if this particular vehicle has spent any time overseas if it hasn't been reported damaged?. Or even if it is possible to see where it has been stationed out of (can find a few markings for then possibly) Apologies in advance if this is a question asked a 1000 times by newbies like me.

Mick,
There are a few ways to tell:
1) the page relating to Vietnam service on REMLR;
2) the ARN entry in the REMLR database with VTF or some other Vietnam comment (these are likely in the Vietnam service page;
3) photographic evidence;
4) more indepth research of unit or ship records at the AWM; and
5) a personal account from someone who was there.
Most other theories are just hearsay speculation and don't prove very much.
Enjoy your time researching, but get that baby back on the road soon and enjoy the drive.
Cheers,
Pete
