During our 2022 Annual Gathering we could present GenMjr (ret) Wolfgang Jilke "his" former command vehicle from the time he commanded the 9th Tank Grenadiers Brigade. After the Brigade had been disbanded in 1997, the APC served for a few more years in an Armored Engineer Battalion until it was discharged from active service in 2010 and believed lost. Today it is back in its original condition and parked - together with its "brethren" from the 3rd and 4th Tank Grenadiers Brigades - in Prottes. The link to a short interview with GenMjr Jilke is here (German version only):
Together Again After 25 Years
