OK, muster time 0815 hrs. If I don't get the M109A3 insured in time, then I'll be bringing the usual:) Poor '68 is left out again

Scott what is the latest we can show up for setup? I'm still planning on coming, however I haven't done my safety checks just yet. That'll have to wait until tonight after work. Just checking to see when I need to pull up anchor and head up in the morning

Scott,

Talked to about a dozen hot rod people in the last three weeks, all of which had issues with local MV Collectors crashing their shows and none had anything good to say about the invaders. If you want to play army truck so bad why don't you enlist? The MVPA shows are for just this sort of thing, as well as the little get togethers. Car shows are for the cars. Reserves are paying good money for people with your enthusiasm.

Attitudes like this are exactly why I've never accepted invitations to bring my Mil vehicles to car and truck shows. I have little patience with folks that have their noses so far in the air that would drown if it rained.
Really? I was with Scott when he had his truck at a Steilacoom Park car show and they all seemed to love it, in fact the judges presented him with youngest collector award. They were very impressed with the fact Scott worked two jobs in order to buy his truck. This is a rare trait when most kids expect stuff to handed out to them.

As far as Scott joining the Army goes I only wish I had guys like him in my Detachment.

On a side note I'll probably show up too.

-Dale

We are planning to show up at about 8:30-8:45, we are trying to leave a 7:00. Scott, please leave me a big spot, I'm gonna unfold the crane and fly the flag from it and I'm almost twice as long as a deuce. No need to move any Prius or Smart cars, I'll just use those for wheel chocks. :beer::driver:
