How to tell where my M925A2 was stationed?

Tried searching, but wasn't able to find anything. Is there anyway to tell where my M925A2 was stationed or where it served by the markings on the bumpers? On the passenger side front bumper it says: 1200CSSB and on the driver's side front bumper is says: 2025T 123.

Just curious as to where the truck has been or what unit it was a part of. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Looks like it came from an Alabama National Guard unit. Read the whole article.

Awesome, thank you! Is there anyway to tell if the trucks have been deployed and brought back, or if they stayed here at home? I see now that the 1200 CSSB is the unit where it was - what does the CSSB stand for? (I will try to Google that first). Any thought on what the numbers on the driver's side might be? Any significance? Or maybe just the truck's assigned number in the unit or something?

I was just getting ready to post that I googled that and figured it out. Thanks for the help! Still curious about the other numbers and to see if there's a way to tell if my truck has been deployed or not.

Again, this is nasty girls not active duty so I can't attest for there record keeping.
Is there a reason you're continually trying to insult a large number of veterans? Did the National Guard units that served in Iraq and Afghanistan (or WW II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm) do so any less honorably than active duty units? Did they just pretend to get wounded or killed in action?

The unit... was not prepared, not disciplined, and don't get me started on weight standards.

Now, if you think I am disrespecting the large number of veterans by calling the national guard nasty girls then I apologize to you, would you rather me call them weekend warriors instead?

I see you were in the army, and I am guessing national guard by the way you took offense to the statement. I apologize.
I would prefer you called them soldiers or called them nothing at all. I served on active duty, the Guard, and the Reserves over a 15 year period. There were unprepared, undisciplined, and fat soldiers (and entire units) in all of these organizations. Look at the standards present today on active duty and how many people are separated or on medical hold due to weight issues. Being in the military doesn't automatically make someone fit, physically or mentally.

This site is for the discussion and enjoyment of military vehicle owners. Making disparaging remarks about anyone, especially veterans of any service, is not needed or appropriate.

My truck had a barcoded sticker on the passenger door(UNDER the green paint, the truck used to be desert tan), that said Camp Arifjan, Kuwait to Ft Dix NJ, and had the shipping weight on it. It also has a couple bullet holes in the passenger side step, and judging by the amount of shell casings I found behind the passenger seat, and all of the links for the casings...they were running a machine gun(M249) out of it at one point.

The military painted it 383 camo and it went to the Washington DC National Guard after that.
