My thoughts on on the link about some recent posts about various members and various subjects. Thankfully the one thread was closed and probably deleted a few minutes ago before I got to add this to that thread.
For God sakes folks, we are talking...
Title pretty much sums it up. I was looking at the weather.com site and saw an ad with a PBY in it.
I tried to copy the picture but the site wouldn't let me so I'm putting in the link. IF it comes up correctly, it should be a picture of a PBY...
I am going to be heading from El Paso to OKC and back and will most likely go via Roswell for other reasons.
If anyone needs something small moved, let me know. I'm only planning to take my 1009. Can take the trailer also if I need to but that will require fuel payment.
My intent is to...
I'm throwing this out in hopes someone can help me out. I'm lookig for the specific bumper number for the halftracks in D Co 83rd Recon Battalion, 3rd Armored Division. I know they'd be
3 (triangle) 83 R and on the other side D-#. What is the # is the question. Also if anyone has any photos...
Does anyone know the size of bushings I need to buy from LMC truck for the leaf springs for a M1009? I think I'm going to change mine out.
I'll also be changing out the bushings for the pitman arm and sway bar. Figure it's time to do it.
There will be a Meet and Eat on December 16 at 1045 (+/- 15 min) at the Golden Coral at the intersection of 54 and Trans Mountain Road in El Paso, TX for everyone to ....well...uh...Meet and Eat.
This is pretty informal so you show up when you can. You pay for your own meals and we sit and...
Story I saw on another website. Guess it is too late for this stuff. Makes you sick.

Who is the resident expert on removing/refurbishing/replacing halftrack armor?
I have several questions and I know virtually nothing about them. Would prefer to have someone who knows about these vehicles PM me with a phone number that I can call them to discuss this.
Thanks

There is a Veterans Parade in El Paso on Saturday. Line up is around 0900 in the Cotton and Merkle streets area. I'm getting more info over the next 24 hrs since I just found out about it today.
If anyone is in the AO.......
Also I'll probably be at Hooters and Golden Coral at some point...
Looking for information on the following NSN that I've come to a dead end on. Here is my research so far:

CLEANER, TERMINAL, PL
I ran the cage and AMDF and come up with
R3 Marketing with a product number of PS-1224
SAFETYLINE.INC with a product number of PS-1224C

There is a high probability I will be going from Atlanta to El Paso sometime between December 8 or the following Friday.
IF someone has a ROADWORTHY vehicle with insurance and tags they need moved from those areas, PM me.
I can't move anything in the vehicle since I'll be using any...
Let me set the stage. M35A2 with M1061 trailer with a load that would have made the recent load taken to the GA Rally look like childs play.
My watch was packed away. My cell was turned off to conserve battery life. No means of tracking time just the miles by the mile markers. Two weeks...
Not real long ago there was a post about someone having or making replacement A3 seat covers. The search didn't turn up anything. Does anyone recall this thread or know who has these replacement covers??
Senoia, GA has a Memorial Day Parade on Monday. I was always skeptical about having a parade on such a hallowed day but I have found in my experience that it is actually a time that we can get out and talk about the sacrifice this country has made. I carry banners to support the SSG Gene Vance...
As a kid, besides sleeping with all of Charlies Angles (at the same time) one of my greatest dreams was having a WWII jeep.
Drumroll please, fire the 21 gun salute, all stand at attention, que the theme from Patton:
awe shucks, I couldn't get the pictures to download on this computer...
I had this photo sent to me. This was at a Army maintenance building. It consists of a wheeled office chair base, a GP small tent pole, a block of wood, two work lights and some wire with battery clamps.
This looks like a good Soldier B flashlight holder. Simple, crude, effective.
