I saw the write up on the CH46 here at MCAS Cherry Point. She might have been rebuilt and repainted here because they did do a write up on her about going to a museum. That is were I work at now is the rebuild facility. We get in HC46s and send them out as new birds. We do get birds in here that...

A couple of notes on some of the birds in the photos. The Ch46 Marine helocopter in the photo, was called the Medal of Honor bird by the squidrons that had her. I can try to look up the story she was involved in a firefight in Viet Nam and one of the Marines she had just picked up ran off her to...

We repaint and rebuild helocopters were I work. THAT is NOT a paint booth, well, not a goverment one. The ones we have are down draft air flow. Also, does any one here remember the new paint booth at Fort Bragg that blew up back in the 1990s and killed one worker? One of the few, Frank USMC RET

I have the same generator, what are they used for? I got it a couple of years ago to jump start my trucks, that is what I was told they were used for. I have never used it. Mine looks new......scrap it? One of the few, Frank USMC RET

No. They had a half door that snapped in. When you look at a WWII jeep you will see the snaps were the driver and passenger get in. You never see it used as it was a pain to use. One of the few, Frank USMC RET

I remember seeing them in the scrap metal bins here, just full bins, sold as scrap. One of the few, Frank USMC RET

I have photos taken around 1990 of a military holding area in Germany that has several hundred WWII halftracks in it to be was as targets. They were halftracks that were rebuilt by the french. The guy who sent me the photos also sent me another photo of another part of the holding area that was...

I am on my 2nd halftrack. Both were found with full armor. Looks like you got out cheap. One of the few, Frank USMC RET

Can they bring it down to Newport? I am about 45 minutes from Jville on highway 24. I am so far behind on every thing, I just do not have the time to make the run. Ask if they can even bring it down hwy 24, might be able to meet them. One of the few, Frank USMC RET

Goverment Liquidations has done more than enough to help you on this. At this point you are going to the Ford company and asking them to help you on a car they sold to some one else, but you got stuck with a bad title. It is no longer their fight. You need to find the guy who's name is on th...

Some were bought by the military to be used aound the bases. I am with maddawg on this, they are very collectable. One of the few, Frank USMC RET

On the condoms, why are they marked "retread"? :) One of the few, Frank USMC RET

We got a "cat" with our new farm here (old owners left her). I am not a cat person, but I do have alot of military canvas. Mice love canvas. First week here, the "cat" brought me a dead mouse. I told her "you are now on payroll". She brings me dead mice, and every morning at 0500, she comes to...

I got mine in Nov. 2006 from TNJ Murray for $200. I also ordered an "extra" beacon light for $30. They are all still in the barn, waiting to be put on one day. Also, when I called, they said they did not know in they had any in stock (Nov,2006) and asked me to call back in a couple of days...

Go with the M101 trailer, the M105 is way to heavy. Where is Trinity? I am in Newport, I have the M101s (M101, A1,A2) so you could look at them to see what you need. I also have the shelters here. The one in the photos will not work. One of the few, Frank USMC RET

Some where in my files here I have a break down of all the equipment that was left in Viet Nam when we pulled out. I got this out of my Dad's Army Times news paper back in the 1970s. One thing I do remember from the story was that they were saying that the equipment would be junk in just a few...

Chris Go to G503.com Go to the armor forum part. You will be able to part it out very easy, or buy it and sell it whole. The scout car can be very$$$$$$$$$$ to restore. I had one back in the 1980s, never restored it, and still dumped a lot of money into it. Save it! This is your chance to have...
