M-715's were made from 67-69. Alot went to fire departments and forest service after military service and regularly show up on GSA auctions.

715's were out of army inventory fast. By 1976, it was over for the most part. The troublesome Tornado 230 engine did not do well when driven at highway and autobahn speeds.
