You missed a good event. There were historical displays from demolition to mess tent. Displays of Army, Marine Corp, and Air Corp with half a dozen WW2 vehicles. There were quite a number of newer M series vehicles courtesy of members of the Oregon Mil. Vehicle Collectors Club. For the...

Anyone going to turn out for this one? I will be there, but too many events this weekend. PS they feed us for this one. It is exit 111 off I-5 at Hawks Prairie.

Saturday 12 Sept. at Cabela's from 0900 to 1300. We should be in place by 0800. They furnish the hotdogs, chips, and drinks. So far I am it. Rest of my crew is going to Hoquim for a parade. Coug, maybe you should go to that one. Not sure the time but am sure it is published somewhere.

TB58, what sort of truck do you have? M54 or 800 series. They have a twist the horn button type and it is a bugger if it hasn't been off for awhile. the M923 is easy with 3 screws holding it on. If you have the twist type, be patient or you will break a leg off.

My truck is original, non restored, with painted crosses. At some point they did put a couple small vinyl crosses on the front of the over the cab piece, with ambulance stenciled in between. My truck is a 1977 with woodland camo paint job, but I think it came originally as straight green, as...

Ron, Keep an eye on us here. This is a good thread for keeping track of NW stuff. P

The side crosses and on top of the box are painted on, on my truck.

This is worth refreshing. Thank you for the tips in this thread. A friend came by today with his 923A1 and no horn. Ended up taking the horn button off, cleaning a lot of corrosion, and viola, the horn is working away again,. Cleaned the nut, spring, and push button. Horn works like a champ...

Welcome to the team. Hopefully we will see you soon, with some green iron. I think the next thing where we can bring vehicles to play is 12 Sept. at Cablea's Lacey for Military Family appreciation day. There is an event at Ft. Stevens, outside Astoria OR on 14-16 August. MV's would be...

Keep watching and it will work out. With the heat, today was somewhat brutal, but the people were appreciative.

Military Family appreciation day at Cabella's in Lacey WA is coming up on 12 Sept. time is 0900 to 1400. We should be in place by 0800 as it gets a little crazy with everyone trying to get in to get their booth areas set up. MV's are welcome to attend. Space is limited, so let me know early...

Hello Team, if you are looking for a day trip or are a member of either of these two groups, 15-16 Aug 2015 will be the annual campout, WW2 historical displays, and military vehicle show at Ft. Stevens. There will be a special "Spirit of 45" Service at 1300 on 16 Aug at Battery Pratt to...

Good display today. think we had 11 vehicles there M813A1, M923, M923A1, 2- CUCV, CUCV ambulance, M37, M38, M715, and 2 of the Hemett platized load movers that belonged to the National Guard. Little bit warm in the low to mid 90's, but I think everyone had a good time.

Sorry we missed. Are you talking about the 181st table? I will put it aside till you get a chance to look at it. I have to sort through my tables and see what I want to keep and part with. I may need that one to go with the M151, that is a HQ 181st truck.

She told me it was pretty wild. Work in the Operating room all day and go out on the town all night. The Navy nurses had to be single, were well educated and making officers pay. Quite a combination. Despite what they portrayed in the Pearl Harbor movie, it is highly unlikely that there...

Sorry I keyed on the failure to start. Too many variables without a bit more diagnostic. Still sounds like something in the fuel system. Back to the fuel questions, does it have fuel, is it getting fuel, is it getting too much fuel (flooding). Then the variables that go off from that. My...

How long was the truck sitting before the failure to start. Do a search of the threads on loss of prime at the carb. I had that problem, used advice on here, solved it, and now it is back again. If I let the truck sit for week, it loses prime. I also found that I had a bad fuel line that was...

One of my aunts was a Navy nurse during WW2. She told me that she fought the battle of San Francisco. :)

Was she a Rosie the riveter? She is just about on the bottom of the age range. Peter

Looks like the 1SG with M923A1, Larry with M813, and me.
