David Doyle - New Editor of Supply Line !

[Junkyard Wars Crusher]

I just cracked open my April/May '09 copy of Supply Line magazine and discovered that David Doyle is this publication's new Editor. Congratulations Mr. Doyle! It is great to know that such a knowledgeable and accessible dignitary will lead this magazine. Let us know if we can help you sir.

Supply Line Magazine is a publication of the MVPA. www.mvpa.org

I can't think of a better person to sit at the helm of Supply Line.
The publication can only get better through his efforts.
David has been a huge help to many of us over the years.
Smooth sailing at the wheel Sir.

If THAT doesn't get me to join the MVPA, nothing will!

Congratulations, David!

I have known for some time now about this but was sworn to secrecy by David! David is an excellent advocate and a big fan of the post-WWII trucks so we can expect more coverage of our trucks. In years past, it is my opinion that they have neglected the "newer" stuff.

all i can say is congrats!

Wow...good news indeed!

Congrats to you David! I cannot think of a more capable person to helm that publication!

No MVPA in Indiana?

 

[DanMartin]

Yes, there is. In fact, the Indiana chapter of the MVPA is hosting this year's convention in Evansville this Aug 5-9.

 

[roscoe]

Thanks, DanMartin. It looks to be a worth while organization to join.

Congratulations David, I agree that the expertise you bring with you will be appreciated by all....

A BIG thumbs up

I dived in as usual and didn't even notice, my bad. All I can say is, "Cool!"

 

[DDoyle]

Thanks for the kind remarks guys. This year, so far, has been full of work and changes in my life which has precluded my participating here at Steel Soldiers like I would have liked to have. Things do seem to be settling out, and by the time Aberdeen rolls around I should be a regular here once again. In the meantime, if anyone would like to reach me, drop me an email.

One of these changes was being named editor of Supply Line a few weeks ago. Many changes have been made in the publication (including the color cover), with more coming in the next issue. The Military Vehicle Preservation Association is moving forward, and the publication reflects these changes.

Here is the cover of the first edition of the restyled Supply Line (mailed April 1, 2009), and the next issue will have even more changes.

Best wishes,
David Doyle

I like the new look. Nice to see newer stuff.

I was going to ask you David about the cover of that magazine. The commander of the 62nd LC in Vietnam is a personal friend of mine who lives 30 miles away. In fact I took my deuce down for the 2008 Vietnam Landclearers Association reuinion to do trail rides. I got tons of great rome plow stories and they had some really great pics. I met some of the guys from the 984th LC Co.

Just got my copy in the mail and have to say, David is a great writer and his introductory column is dead nuts, spot on. My sincere congratulations to Mr. Doyle!

 

[littlebob]

Great choice, wish you well. You have been a great help to me in your published articles and your input here. Congradulations!

Not only was David named editor of Supply Line he is now an appointed director of the MVPA. The skills that he brings to the association as editor are matched with his knowledge, passion and vision for the hobby. I think that when we look back at David's acceptance of this leadership role we will see this as a turning point in the Military Vehicle Preservation Association's ability to project the importance of preserving all military vehicles, not just World War II ones.

Things are definitely looking up for Supply Line and the Association. We regularly see David down here in the South at events and he and his wife are always a pleasure to talk to and he even talks about trucks (when the Mrs. lets him!)

Congrats, David!!
