Hello guys,
i have a 6 ton semi trailer to put behind my m275a2 truck tractor. I am sanding the semi trailer at the moment and i find out that the trailer had many layers of paint, from woodland camouflage to some tan desert color paint. On the sides of the trailer, in the middle, left and right side, there is/was the symbol used in desert storm, the inverted letter "V" . The trailer is from 1961 and since i live in belgium it is very close to a 100% that it came from a unit stationed in Germany. now i was wondering if it was possible that that trailer was used in desert storm and after was shipped to germany ? or did units stationed in germany also participated in irak ? Would they send such an older trailer (it was already 30 years or something) over there ?
on the sides is also some painted on the sides, front " us army " and below 7D 2569. more at the end, also on the left and right side is "B 30aa" or 83GAA,
any theories or hints ?
thanks
