    A very personal question...Dipstick Length?

    I am surprised that no one has specifically shouted: READ THE TM'S yet. You are new to the truck and haven't even read the operator's manuals !!! By asking the question, it is rather obvious that thus far you are ill-prepared to function as an 18-year old, 120 pound G.I. in your Uncle Sam's...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    :grd::driver::goodjob:...but I noticed you're driving on the "wrong" side of the road all the time!!! In any case - Congratulations! You are officially a good ambassador for the MV Hobby.

    309th Aerospace Maintenance And Regeneration Group

    NO No no..... I'm saying that by your wily ways you have escaped death by the hair on a droid's chinny chin chin. Meant that as a compliment of sorts and my no means was I dissing you. Now back to our aircraft bone yard topic if we may..... What are some of the more rare birds that might be...

    309th Aerospace Maintenance And Regeneration Group

    May have been "researching the enemy".... you know.... SPYING aka Intell-Gathering. UH... We could tell you, but then we'd have to kill you. But if you really must ask.... (sound of round being chambered - - CLICK, RATCHET, CLICK) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyGA5iZukZ0

    DUKW Crash Fatalities

    It would be my estimation that the LAW SUIT paperwork started on the day of the accident with the passing of a single attorney's business card into the hand of a single surviving next of kin. Since then it's just been a continuing gathering of evidence. This most recent piece - the official...

    Drove two VFD deuces with the mechanical parking brakes removed?

    1. WHO is your VFD's SAFETY OFFICER? 2. Are you protected from reprisal by WHISTLE BLOWER LAWS in your State? 3. Check the INSURANCE ID CARD in the glove box. The Insurance Carrier might also be interested in this UNSAFE CONDITION. NOTE: There ARE consequences. Your choice.

    Post.."Smack"! Here!.

    It's not the fall that kills you. It's that sudden stop at the bottom that'll get you every time. Yes, as DH said, GRAVITY...... (and I'll add) It's the LAW OF GRAVITY. "I fought the LAW and the LAW won.... I fought the LAW and the LAW won." I'm glad you didn't report and broken bones...

    Parking brake-- Do I need it?

    Unless your Deuce is a later model USAF Contract Built M35A2C it has ONLY Single-Circuit air over hydraulic brakes. In other words, any seal, line, or other failure could and would readily result in ZERO brake pedal effect upon rolling momentum. THIS IS VERY BAD. Hence, although not very...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Our Deuce is still a NO START. With Gimpy's internet, phone and text support, I had the courage to get deep inside the Hydraulic Head - FINALLY, after many delays, eyesight challenges, Soldier B's TDY's, my own other priorities, and UNCOOPERATIVE WEATHER. What i found in there was NOT what I...

    Oshkosh M978 Certificate of destruction

    Sad that useful machines and their parts and being needlessly destroyed. I'm wondering if January 20, 2017 will bring some changes in policy and demil codification. Disclaimer: NOT a political post, but merely reflecting upon potential changes in policy with our newly elected Commander-In-Chief.

    Spare Motor

    We have a multi-fuel engine in a can that came with our Deuce. It took a while to get someone to come by the LZ with the ability to lift it out of the bed and down to the ground.... but eventually a contractor working nearby did it for us. Later we acquired an M105 trailer in marginal shape to...

    EXPORTING a M911 Oshkosh

    I'm curious.... 1. Did YOU acquire this M911 from Uncle Sam through one of his Contract Auction Houses (GovLiquidation, GovPlant, etc.)??? Or did YOU purchase it from a previous PRIVATE PARTY (Individual or Business)? 2. If you were the FIRST private owner, were YOU REQUIRED to apply for and...
