Specialist - hello from down here in Lilburn. Mark on your calender April 21st as we are having a cookout here. No rally - no runs - no poles - Bring the kids - BYOB - - bring the dog as long as its its not amoungst the killer breed - bring a dish to pass if YOU CAN. Come and have fun.

Just have to keep an eye out for the thread on it or just look it up. Will be posting a little more as it approaches.

Folks I am sure will bring some stuff to sell or trade. Bring the MV - bring the bike or POV - does not matter just come.

If you can handle this you will be OK at the GA RALLY.

re; Hello from NW Georgia

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. My ETS from the US ARMY was back in 1999. My last duty station was at Ft. Irwin in CA. Since then, I haven't had a lot of interest in Military vehicles.

The older I get, the more I reflect on the fond memories I had in the military and the guys that I served with. Last week I drove by TaylorTradingCo's place in Ringgold. GA. I stopped and stood there at the fence for a while looking at the trucks (It was after hours). I think sometime while I was standing there reminiscing, the bug bit me.

Out of all the vehicles that I was assigned while in the ARMY, the M109 shop van was my favorite. I've always had some Hot Rodder in my blood. After a minor fuel pressure modification to my 109 and my friends deuce we had fun getting out to the field location faster than anyone in our platoon.:) Our Lieutenant wasn't to happy about us flying by his Humvee at the front of the line, but he got over it!

Currently, I am doing my research on the M109!

Thanks Guys!
Chris
Hello and Welcome Chris,

And also, Thank you for your service to our country, it is greatly appreciated.

I am located in Marietta, Ga.
So if you ever need any assistance, I would be glad to do what I can, just ask.

I tried to join the Navy, in time for Desert storm/shield, but I was disqualified,
right off the bat, so very disappointed, but no hard feelings, I got over it.

I would like to go to the rally too, just not so sure at this point.

Have a good day,

Hello,

Thanks for your offer! Looks like it is going to be a fun time at the rally! I was close on the dq myself. I had flat feet! At least you tried my friend!

Thank you for the kind words! It means a lot!

Hello Specialist,

You are welcome, I am glad it means alot, the service to our country all of you troops do,
means alot to all of us.

Thank you for reminding me that at least I tried, I was disqualified due to a...
"hereditary skeletal defect", that apparently I inherited from my father.

I do know that he served in Vietnam, as one of those one-shot kill snipers,
according to him and my mom, I just do not remember if he was Army or Marines...

But since I was exposed to Navy life, thru my Dad, I was comfortable with it,
so that is why I tried to join the Navy.

I was simply trying to ask what I could do for my country..

Thank you again, and have a good night,
