Don't know if this is the right spot, but, last trip out to Lucerne, Ca., ran across this yard full of stuff.There were also some fuel/water tanks, and some sort of pressurized containers.

The "Pressurized Units" are twain agent units. They were mounted in the back of M1028 trucks. We had two of them in our Crash Crew in the Marines. One tank held PPK powder and the other tank held lite water (foam). The units were pressurized by two nitrogen cylinders. They were made for fast responce to an aircraft crash.

Sorry, I thought you were talking about the round items that were stored on top of the trailer in the last photo at the top. Those are shipping containers. We have them at work for shipping aircraft parts.
