This thread is setup to load all the applicable military manuals and shorter documents related to feeding people with the various field feeding equipment that I have found information on. It is mainly 'domestic' but will also include foreign cooking equipment used by the US Military, such as...

The TFK-250 is not a US Military (Army) TM, but the Navy had them, and there is a USN manual which is a translation of the original German. BILD 1 is the operating instructions, BILD 2 is the recipes. We will be adding a number of other manuals with instructions, guidance, SOP, and other...

Check the primary (water seperator) filter and probably change the two 'secondary' fuel filters. A deuce will run without the in tank pump working if there is no air in the fuel lines. Fuel in the tank may be 'bad' if the truck has been parked where the main tank gets afternoon sunshine and...

And surplus 400 hertz generators are MUCH cheaper than their 60 cycle bretheren.

The reason for 400 cycles vs 60 is that smaller gauge wire can be used, and the GI stuff is usually also three phase, not single phase power like most households. 400 3 phase WILL NOT MIX WELL with 60 single phase!!!!

SC will plate if the paperwork is complete. Guys in our local club (MVCSC) have over a dozen with regular plates on them. I do not own a HMMWV, all my stuff is two and a half ton size and I've never had a problem with the DMV.

62 inches from the front of the bed to the center of the axle on my generator trailer (which has the extra length on the back end).

It's both. A joint venture of MV's and the VA Offroad Jeep group. Held at the Graves Mountain Lodge and hosted by Cabell Garbee (cgarbee on Steelsoldiers) who can get you the proper paperwork to attend.

And I'm ahead of you by 5 months. As they say in Poland, "Sto Lat!" (may you live 100 years).

Get your PM done and then drive over to Syria, VA for the Labor Day Rally this fall.

Since you have the Federal Supply Service code for the correct paint color 33538, first 3 is for flat finish, second 3 is for yellow, and 538 is the shade, you should be able to go to most any paint retailer that has a computer with 'competitive paints' in their system. On the computer, have...

Story I was told is that the final assembly was done near Charlotte, NC and their acceptance test was to drive into the lake, go out 100 yards and return. More than half, according to the story, sank on the first try. Only privately owned one I saw had custom 2 x 8's on the sides of the...

M103 with a longer bed (10 ft instead of 9 ft). I've owned more than one, the one I'm keeping is be being converted into a bunk trailer.

116 is good for a single generator, the M103 type with a longer bed was used for the 'power unit' (IE 2 generators with the switch between them and the load).
