What's that I see?

So, I'm coming off of night shift this morning and I did one of those, "Did I just see what I thought I just saw?" things. I work at a steel mill and one of the satelite companies that does some of the bigger structural work for us has this white M123 sitting out back. Looks like they have it rigged up to maybe haul furnace parts around to there shop or something like that. Also unlike most of the other vehicles that they use, this one appears to be somewhat maintained.

hmm, I wonder if they'll let me drive it?

That looks like an M747 trailer hooked to it.

Yep,M123A1C diesel single winch version hooked to a M747 trailer.

They had this other trailer that looks like it may have at least started out military. It has a different layout. Also I just noticed that in the last picture above, my pick-up truck is parked next to the M123A1C. It makes my truck look like a toy truck.

Looks like they overloaded the landing gear on that one.....slightly askew and sunk into the ground. Doesn't look military to me unless it is Air Force or other branch.
