Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
You can always find somebody to do whatever you can't yourself, and those people need people like us:
They'll have machines with the heavy needles. I bet they might tackle it. Sometimes, they even welcome a project that's a little different from their usual thing.
Thank you! I haven't touched this truck in a couple years. A lil ole Gama Goat has taken my time away from my other trucks. However, now that I'm done with the GG, I'm going to turn my focus back onto this truck. Got a couple projects brewing. Will keep you guys posted.
. I don't want to disclose what I paid out of respect for those selling the antenna in this forum. I know my truck is not the correct color scheme for the DUKE. However, at this time I'm going to roll with it. As seen with the MTVR, they and many large vehicles ran two DUKES. So that's going to the the idea. My guntruck with too much crap is going to get more crap on it
I know several cases where guys ended up owning their former assigned truck as a civillian, or know who does, or would give ANYTHING to have their former assigned truck back. (In one case the guy swore to me in no uncertain terms he would make his old M936A1 his daily driver). I've actually talked to someone who helped build M939A2s.But the antennae is tan! Are you feeling okay Mike? Wish you could have had that setup with us at the Capital last weekend. It certainly would have made a statement. met a man at the Ft. Lewis Museum yesterday that asked about the 5 tons we had at the Capital. It seems that the 1SG's truck was one of this mans motor pool trucks when they first came to the unit in 1986. It is neat to keep the history alive in this way. The only positive thing about not having you there, is that I can slack a little bit, without looking at your truck and knowing I need to do a better job.
Hi Peter, unfortunately, they're all tan. I bought a couple for the trucks. Would like to have a tan truck to really do it right. I would liked to have attended the Auburn parade and the Capital trip. However, I had the weekend shift. Hopefully next year I'll be able to participate. Oh Peter, your trucks look outstanding! Fortunately, I kept 2 out of the 6 trucks in the same condition when they left the service. Well, I may have added a couple little things here and there...well actually, I may have added for than just a littleBut the antennae is tan! Are you feeling okay Mike?
