British Army Cat’s

Graham Black was attending this event at the Leicester based factory where heavily armoured Cat wheeled loading shovels were being demonstrated.

It is a real credit to Finning UK & Ireland and the work that has been put into the armour on these machines to protect the young men and women at the controls.
