I don't believe this has been posted before. I was searching around my troubleshooting folder and I have a couple of images from the Army PM Magazine (the cartoon tips magazine) articles for the LMTV so I thought why not try to see if they are online and if they have an index for FMTVs... Yes and yes


Website (For some it throws up a privacy warning concerning the certificate. Worked without warning on my desktop but my cell phone had the warning so I choose the option to go there anyway):
https://www.logsa.army.mil/psmag/psonline.cfm

Not sure if this will all post but I looked through their index of all articles and these are the ones for FMTV with the subject, issue number, and page number.

Hope this is helpful (the misspelled words in the list are strait from the Army index)

Great resource but I can't get to it. May be my security software but getting 'privacy error' and no option to bypass. Are others successful?

I updated my posting to indicate the privacy warning for some devices before the link.

It works ok on my desktop where I did the search and found it. Checked my phone and it gives me the same warning you received. Looks like its certificate is not up to date. I had an option to bypass and go to the site anyway and it let me in.

The farthest I was able to go back on the site was Issue 565 which is Dec 1999.

I just finished downloading everything available. Like I mentioned before, earliest issue archived on line is Dec 1999. I guess for any of the others I'll have to look for hard copy versions. I would have like the issue with the introduction of the FMTVs.

Note: if you are downloading these some can be a bit wonky. They'll start loading, get partially through, then dump you back to the start. It took me about 10 tries to get a couple of them.

I just installed the PS magazine app on my iPhone. It seems like a decent way to get to current and prior information. Normal app vs. desktop website usability disclaimers apply.
