Welcome home to you!!!! As for me, I was born in 1971 and that makes me only 36. The yellow nose was for the 8th Trans GP in the Highlands. They painted there trucks in mid 69 so there commanders could spot their trucks from the air easier.KaiserM109 said:Jeff,
Hang tight, bud. I'm selling stuff too. I just don't have much to peddle. I'm going to tap out my 401K today to pay the rent and storage on my deuce. I have some good prospects, though. BTW, welcome home brother.
Are those markings from your unit in Nam? I've started digging through old pic's for a photo of our M109 van. I don't remember its bumper numbers. I got a speeding ticket in it during the '68 Tet when I was hot-footin' it to FSB Moore.
I don't remember any trucks having a yellow nose, though. I do remember painting over the white stars with green and painting all our bumper and serial numbers black. That was late ’68, I believe, the same time that our M113 tracks got painted 3 color commo.
Will fix that when i get back to TN and all moved in. I have not touched the site in many months and I have plenty of updates.gimpyrobb said:Wow, no mention of SS on your website.
