    Normandy France June 6, 2014 70th Anniversary

    I too was there for the 60th and it was so much fun, am going again. I will do pictures, but am still having problems loading pics on this site, with the change in the management tool for doing that.

    Armed Forces Day JBLM May 17, 2014

    Mission accomplished. The weather held today and there was quite a crowd. Thanks to those SS members that were able to attend and or bring a vehicle along to the event. This is one of the best events that we do out here. At many places that we display, you don't get anywhere near the...

    anyone with a class b or a licence in socal help.

    That is essentially a nice truck, it could be of concern that the fuel tank and tool box are both bent up for some reason. Did someone perform the old GL trick of trying to pick up something with a forklift? It looks like you have a winner once you get the chance to work out a few bugs. Good...

    Armed Forces Day JBLM May 17, 2014

    If you are going to come out and bring your MV, if you have current DOD ID, there should not be a problem. it looks like we will be on the Baseball field again. Am headed up now to check out the situation and will let yo know if there is something different. If you don't have current Military...

    PNW-6TH Annual Chehalis River Valley M/V Convoy and Campout

    If there is a need, would be glad to furnish the WW2 Large Wall tent for BOQ or if a family would like to get the WW2 experience. You will need to bring your own cots and sleeping bags. It is about 14x17 so can house quite a few. This is the same tent that was set up last there last year...

    Is anyone interested in doing the Winlock Egg Day parade? June 28, 2014. Last year we had 3 vehicles, M35, M54 and Tracy's Ural. If there is interest, I will put in a parade application. It is a small town and a nice parade. Parade starts and 1100 and doesn't take very long. Don't forget...

    Olympic Flight Museum Warbird Airshow June 14 - 15, 2014

    The annual OFM airshow will be held on Father's Day weekend again this year. In the past they have encouraged participation of Vintage Military Vehicles, but there is a problem this year. It seems the area is infested with Mazama Pocket Gophers (endangered species). They are trying to get a...

    Armed Forces Day JBLM May 17, 2014

    After discussion with some our troops at the display at the Harley Dealer in Fife, WA, thought I had better bump this up. It may be a little late to register for the event, as they wanted them in last month, but I am sure if you show up with an MV, that they can find someplace for you to park...

    What a deal on getting new rolling stock folks. Hopefully they are paying the government more for the stuff than GL. take a look at your SF97 to determine the governments portion. It looks like it would take more to ship to CA than what the gov. was getting out of them. Besides it was almost...

    with the reductions on base you would think they would take all the rent they could get. the reason trucks and trailers are currently headed for Fontana is that they are doing some work on the parking lots behind the building there at GL

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Davo from the looks of your picture, you have a very nice tool box and it opens a bit, even if only 2 or 3 inches. I use Kroil but PB is good too. In the picture, I don't see any over spray or drip from too much oil. I would say oil it good and keep wiggling it back and forth and it is going...

    WSUCougarx's M101A2 Build

    Another mod we probably need to do, is the swivel crank landing leg to the 101. It looks like most of the Army trailers don't have this, but the Air Force ones do. I was going to take it to the trailer store to see what matched up.

    WSUCougarx's M101A2 Build

    Good luck with those trailers Coug. I have been waiting for weekend weather to get better so I can experiment on the 1102, by putting a set of the smaller 16.5 tires on it. I think that will drop it down where it will tow level behind the Dodge 3/4. I went with one of the available adapters...

    Scott, how did the swap meet go? OFM was good, I think because of the bad weather, we had a pretty good turnout of visitors. CUCVnut, welcome to the NW.

    Olympic Flight Museum Military Show March 8, 2014

    Thank you for the picture. I thought I got one too, but apparently got scared off from the rain and did not. Did take a couple pictures inside, where it was dry, but was pretty busy talking with folks about the display. does that top make my truck look fat?

    Olympic Flight Museum Military Show March 8, 2014

    The show went well. We had 4 vehicles in attendance, despite the terrible wet weather. I think we need to come up with an award for perserverance for Redrocket and her Ural. I am pretty sure that I passed Noah on the way home and she had to make her ride with no cab. There was a Ural, M923...
