    Help with Unit Markings

    Yes the Air Cav would still have deuces--quite a few of them actually. The numbers would most likely be 25-3-4 on the front passenger side and rear drivers side. I did a cursory image search for 25th ID trucks in Vietnam and only checked page 1 so you may want to do a google search on images...

    I bet if them neighbors had their houses going under, they'd be all over him asking him to get their stuff to high ground

    Truck Rally at Elephant Butte NM October 27th

    Wow, that looks like it was fun. I didn't get home until late Friday due to delays. Wish it would have been Sat and Sun and I could have made it yesterday. Maybe next year.

    ROLL CALL: "West Texas Detachment" Identify Yourselves, Please.

    If I can get my dolly and shelter out here, we'd have very, very near a complete battalion level maintenance tool set. Only downside is it would require a hardstand to work on and it'd be nice to be out of the sun. A warehouse would be great.

    (?):Seeking Information about Halftracks Used By 101stAB WW2

    I don't think halftracks were part of their TO&E. The 101st went into action in 1944 in Normady. I think the 75mm howitzer and 76mm gun versions of the halftrack only saw service in North Africa, Sicily and Italy and also with the Free French. I don't think they were used by US forces in...

    M35A3 tires/rims prices?

    I have an A2C on A3 tires and rims. The swap was fairly easy going from duals to the singles and I'm doing right at 51mph at 2200 rpm via gps. Thespeedometer does not read correctly and I need to get the right adapter.

    ROLL CALL: "West Texas Detachment" Identify Yourselves, Please.

    The deuce is now here and I brought the towbar. We now have recovery capability in case we didn't before.

    Stolen M416

    Oh I love 6 month old threads. They smell so much more ripe than 3 month old threads. Especially when they're from a flash-in-the-pan person that will never visit the site again unless their next MV is stolen or do anything for the SS family. POOF, gone like a fa^t in the wind. I would have...

    DUKW Causes Heart Attack!!

    I'm sure if PB doesn't take it, Clinto will get first dibs. I get next dibs and will park it at Clints or PB until it is restored and drivable/floatable.

    Atlanta to El Paso

    There is a high probability I will be going from Atlanta to El Paso sometime between December 8 or the following Friday. IF someone has a ROADWORTHY vehicle with insurance and tags they need moved from those areas, PM me. I can't move anything in the vehicle since I'll be using any...

    AS1729vrc antenna woes

    The 3900 is NOT 12 series compliant. You want either a replacement antenna (obviously) or go with the AS3916 which is the low profile/high survivability antenna. I think there was a post that this antenna should be mounted away from the radio. Also, 3 ft away for radio test is pretty...

    Can somebody explain these letters painted on my rocker cover?

    SAMS and ULLS both dumped the historical data ones the workorder was closed out and the monthly report was doine. If they completed printed copies, that is a potential but I wouldn't hold my breath. I actually went back to my old unit and they were closing the place and gave me what data...

    Czech army kitchen trailer

    There was a very good thread on these trailers not long ago. I've considered getting one to use for making stews at various events and for really special times where ETOH is allowed, gluhwein. Anyone have an update on the cost of one of these here in the states now-a-days? And what is the...

    New Mexico members check in here!

    Hey all, I doubt I will make Elephant Butte. I will be travelling and not sure what day I fly back home. If anyone is going and can carry some stuff (if I can't go) or if anyone in the El Paso vicinity is interested, I have some stuff I brought west that I'm scratching my head and say wtf...

    1502 miles

    Let me set the stage. M35A2 with M1061 trailer with a load that would have made the recent load taken to the GA Rally look like childs play. My watch was packed away. My cell was turned off to conserve battery life. No means of tracking time just the miles by the mile markers. Two weeks...
