Because he doesn't know just like everybody else. Military orders come down from the top often without explanation and he has to follow them. Probably he got the call and when he asked for an explanation, the secretary who was told to call him really did not have much interest in the topic and heard something about a gauge or something.........

There are 474 trucks on that list, 130ish of them are Frankfort KY trucks and another large group are FT Knox trucks. There are some stragglers from other various sites, but the bulk of those trucks are KY trucks.

There are thousands of trucks from the exact same era that are not effected in the hands of the public right now. Granted this may be a test group of trucks and then the inspections will spread from there, but we are talking a huge undertaking and cost to do so.

Like I said before I am sitting tight for now, this could blow over relatively quickly if somebody talks some sense into the Pencil Pusher who thought this mess up. It could also take years if they go through and actually inspect all these trucks individually. I just hope that if they inspect them they release them as they inspect instead of as a group when it is done
