Count me in. I will be doing a display for the USO the night of the 19th, but will be in and out of the event as possible. You might also count on me to work on the display portion of the event. What time will we be breaking down the display? Will their be provision for lunch for troops that...
Think July 20 for Napavine. We are still awaiting word from the boss.
July 13 will be Arlington and July 27 will be the National MVPA convention in Portland.
For those of you attending the MVPA convention and driving your vehicles down for a day or two. There will be designated MV parking...
This is the last one for this group. Thank you for your patience. This was the 25th year of Armed Forces Day there at Ft. Lewis. It was a bit soggy in the morning but worth it. I thought the incident command vehicle should be in there as it is military and most of us seem to operate with green...
Scott, you are right, it was me. Went up and added some historical color to a USO fundraiser yesterday. It was fun and all the donuts you could eat. Hope to get a few more pictures up later this evening.
Mission accomplished. Will get up some pictures hopefully tomorrow. Thanks to Tracy, Ed, Joshua for the turnout today. You guys really spruced up the place.
Jeff, please put me down for a really serious maybe. Mike E. wants to come and do the Vietnam display again and I am logistical support for his efforts. The M38A1 is currently down with technical issues. Most likely a timing or fuel issue. Hopefully it will be back up and on track by then...
See you then Mike. Be sure and check out the WW1 tent. Next year I will be focusing on WW2 for the 70th anniversary of D-Day Normandie and Bastogne, Batille des Ardenne.
I told them you were coming. The plan is to roll out as soon as all are there.
Here are a couple of pics from today's set up. The large wall is a recent addition to the collection and this is the first time it is out for public view. Makes a nice jeep garage.
Wanted to refresh this one. Tomorrow is the event. I had check in from Tracy, Ed P, Dan F. and Joshua T. Looks like 3 M35's, a Ural, and I am taking the GPW. The M38A1 isn't running right and I didn't have time to figure out what is wrong.
If you have questions, please call me this afternoon or...
It is exit 109, the Martin Way exit off I-5. They are planning on being there at 0730 with roll out at 0800. If you have other questions, please send a note or give a call 360 870 0706. Peter L.
Sounds good will keep you posted. On Saturday if you would like, there is a group meeting at the Lacey Park n ride at 0730 with a 0800 pull out to AFD at JBLM. You could meet some of the other folks and tag along with them and they know where they are going. I will probably be there a bit...
Wanted to get this on the calendar before too many found other things to do that day. This event has been going for several years now and is a way for the community to show support for the military families that are both here and the ones left behind due to multiple deployments. It gives them...
That is also Armed Forces Day at JBLM and many of us will be tied up there at almost the same hours. Hopefully those that are not attending JBLM will support this event.
Neat stuff Mike. We could have used you at Matlock today. We had 3 WW2 jeeps, 1- 1 1/2 ton Chev, WW2, a Chenowith Fast Attack, and a couple of other vehicles showed up, one being an unrestored M38A1 towing an unrestored M416. See you at AFD.
