    Anyone ever submit a claim to GL?

    We need to consider the end results of any type of action. Remember about 6 months ago their was talk of DRMO scraping all surples property. That seems to have gone away. If DOD scraped all of the MVs, GL would be out of business and the US government would lose a lot of money. But remember...

Two weeks ago I placed...

    Flat towing a M817 for 600 miles

    Pick up complete. We were lucky, the truck that I was counting on to run is in great condition. The other two had fuel problems and we quickly realized that they could not be used as a back up puller. We changed one tire using one of the spare tires, serviced all fluids, removed the drive...

Needless to say, my charges were rejected. This happened...
