Freshly painted MERDC <incorrect camouflage. That scheme was issued right around then.

It’d be great to see someone restore their era-correct vehicle with Dueler-dots camouflage. Dual Texture Gradient pattern was ahead of its time and would look right at home on a modern military vehicle in service today.

My Plan is to do my M880 in Dual-Tex. Not sure when I'll get around to it though!

I guess I saw super singles in my minds eye - and had wondered HOW that was possible back then...

What's crazy is I don't see ANY trucks in these pics... I guess the camo works....

Interesting and cool pictures. Thanks for posting!
Looks like the last m416 trailer has a hard top enclosure. Does anyone have information on those?

I'm wondering about the hardtop enclosure on the back of that deuce in the second picture of the last set. It looks like an ERDLATOR back but it appears to be sitting right in the truck's bed. The tailgate is down too.

I thought that was one of those hard skinned metal shells/ enclosures like the M105 sometimes had? Not a true standalone shelter. Not sure of the technical name?
