Officailly called a "DODAC" (pronounced doh-dack). Department of Defence Accounting Center. Easier to read when shipping than something like "507ENG46GP177MP" or "CoC1/125INF38INf"

C'dub--the little knob is supposed to be the vent to let air in so the water will flow out the big hole. That's for normal pouring operation, never seen them left upside down on a tripod like that. Change the angle so it's more horizontal than...
I knew that,
just wanted to make it official. After all, it's not to far from d-u-e-c-e to d-u-c-e and that's not pronounced "duck"
Has anyone ever checked to see if the spell check catches it?
in the olden days
There was a time when not everything had to be an acronym and pronounced as one word. From what I understand, most of the soldiers in WW2 just referred to them as "10-wheelers" or "six'bys". Much the same way as all the infantry guys, including NCOs and Officers, called my...
That puts the Michigan list around 250 members, I think!!! :shock:
Welcome! You've got a month to get it ready for the trails at Grayling. See "Camp Grayling Color Tour" thread under MV events.
EDIT:
BTW, check the CUCV forum for comparisons to stock chevy trucks. You may be able to get a...
Nice set up, beautiful collection. Nice way you put some backdrop stuff in there. Too bad the Sherman DD is hiding behind the PBR. None of mine have the fancy blue ribbons. [thumbzup] Shows your level of dedication.
What scale is the blackhawk?
Why going into storage?

I got a pic of Lane going by on the way home, but the angle is wrong and you can't see what's on his hook!
Check for a video of DaveP on the way home--"Catching up to DaveP on the Fwy"
They're looking both for trucks to come in for just a day, and also be glad to have anyone that wants to leave their vehicles or camp out for the duration. The airport site will have lights on and probably some security for the helicopter, the Wall location will have 24 hour security.

Received a request for Military Vehicles to display while the Vietnam "Moving Wall" is in Brighton, from SEPTEMBER 11 through 14.
Wall will be on display at Mt. Brighton/Jackal Golf Club on Bauer Rd. Vehicles on display may be there or at the airport 4 miles away where the Huey from Peru, IN...
WillWagner:
Before the internet, I started a little research library. That's where I search first. (I've only got about 200 books, one friend has close to a thousand.)
A lot of the other stuff depends on a good search and/or favorite sites. Since Ryan is into wheeled armor, he knows where...
According to Crismon's
The truck was built by Cook Bros. The cut outs on the sides of the front are because it has "platform" steering which pivoted on a center point to turn the vehicle. That's why they don't line up with the tires in the straight ahead position. The cut outs have to be...
Smokey--
Thanks for the pics. So that one didn't go far from Gaylord after all. What was the time on that, when you guys had it? I find it hard to believe that anyone would send that truck and it's abused brothers to Iraq, unless they were using the chassis for a complete rebuild or test bed...
Don't know if there are any large lakes in your area, but boat shops around here can do custom canvas work. Just take them in the material (old gp medium tent comes to mind) and the dimensions, voila, instant jungle roll without the roll.
For another shade idea, we've found that camo netting...
