Last weekend (11/15/2014), Dianna and I were in Lubbock, Texas and took the time to visit the City of Lubbock's SILENT WINGS MUSEUM. The Museum is dedicated to preserving the history of the WWII Glider Pilot Training Program that was located in and around the City of Lubbock...

That's a sweet container trailer. What does the DATE PLATE say it is... Mxxx, Rating, etc.???

That's quite a comment.... Especially since the author omitted any and all reference to the fact that the commandeered aircraft were FREE, readily available when allied equipment was hard to requisition, functional and operational, and its use as captured hardware would further demoralize the...

This is why we volunteer hours and hours to Toys For Tots.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3k1SOE760Y Semper Fi, Santa !

Every time I have replaced the spark plugs on our multi-fuel Deuce I have also invested in parts and time to change to brand new ignition wires, distributor cap and rotor, condenser and points. :doh:rofl:grd: Number of times I've actually DONE this: ZERO ! I've never found any of those parts...

Thank you for your vehicular salute! I'd love to see that video if you're able to find and post it. Carry on!

Continued... That's all, folks ! ! !

I've been quite busy lately, and hence a little slow in posting the Toys-For-Tots entry pic in the San Angelo, TX Veterans Parade which was held on Saturday 11/08/2014 this year. This year, we entered our Deuce along with a recently acquired Santa's Sleigh float. The gentleman who, for 14...

Welcome aboard :D Find a bunk, stow your gear, and prepare to get underway :driver:

Deuces are "Short Bed", unless you get an M36 with is "extended bed". 5-Ton's are "Long Bed", unless you get one of the "extended bed" models. I don't think anyone mentioned that tidbit yet.

As I recall, practice bombs are typically painted a "baby blue" color.

Yes, Corrosives are inherently NASTY ! ! ! I once dealt with an estate where the widow had stored all her deceased husband firearms under her bed wrapped in an old bedspread. The real problem arose when her evaporative air conditioner blew super-humid air on her during the hot summer night of...
