M353 not just for gen sets

I was doing some information dredging on google on the M353 and I found out that they are not solely used for generator sets. I found a TIM mentioning they have been equipped with several different models of mine clearing equipment (MICLIC). The TM is TM 9-1375-215-13 in case anyone was intereste, thought I would share since it is the first I had read about using them as such.

This manual contains instructions for Operator, Unit, and Direct Support (DS) maintenance of the Mine Clearance Line Charge (MICLIC). MICLIC is the Army's acronym for their mine clearing system. The Marine Corps' single-shot, mine clearing system is designated as the MK 2 MOD 0 Mine Clearing System. In this Joint Army/Marine Corps manual the term MICLIC will be used to refer to both the MICLIC or the MK 2 MOD 0 system unless otherwise stated. The primary purpose of MICLIC is to clear a safe, continuous path for vehicles through minefields composed of pressure fuzed, single impulse, non-blast hardened mines. It can be deployed against both hasty and deliberate minefields.

Cool lots of love for the M353 :) I wouldn't mind finding some sort of retractable light stand assembly for mine, would go well with the generator/fuel tank setup I have in mind.
