I think the spedo story is a bunch of crap. My deuce is on the list but it has been certified to contain no radioactive material. the sticker is right on the windshield.
I received this e-mail AFTER I had allready picked up my truck. They are clueless.

Of course, there must be a reason they scanned, and then certified your deuce as having no radioactive material.
Perhaps they know that some radioactive instruments were installed in deuces that were at a certain depot, but they don't know which ones?
The gauges are the problem. Radium-226 was used on the faces and pointers on some of the older gauges. It was also used on older luminous dial watches.
The gov't is working on a fix.
An easy way to tell if your gauges or watches contain a radium emitter, is to place it in a closed container out of the sun for a day or two. If it still glows in the dark, it contains Ra226. Also, a radiac meter will work, but most of us don't have access to one.
I just got word from Govliquidation that both my EUC's were cleared today and I now have a paid in full invoice but my trucks are on the hold list. No word about when it will be resolved. Any ideas how long it will take to release the trucks on hold?
Marcus is allowing pickups at Frankfort with paid in full invoices still. Another fellow there Jay kept on asking me if I had my paid in full invoice. I got the impression they want these trucks off the base ASAP. I know the MPs want them gone....
