    New M151a2

    OC stand for Observer Controller, I was one later in my career.Basically an OC acts as a trainer/umpire for military exercises, on this jeep they simply wired in a high beam light indicator like the one that goes in the dash these are in turn wired into your blackout lights.

    New M151a2

    Here are the pics, uneventful recovery(best kind). Some body damage but underneath and floors are solid. This was an OC jeep as it has the addition of OC running lights front and rear. This one came out of Ft. Chaffee so that makes sense as they used to have the JRTC here.
