You have seen this one before, but it's still my favorite, a true MV, no doors, machine gun, rag top, etc and none of that air conditioned pushbutton stuff.

Bjorn, thanks for sending out that great picture of the soldiers with the deuce in the Iraq war, I had it a couple years ago and lost it. It is my favorite picture of all. John T
Cranetruck's pic was the first one to came to my mind, 67 years of service and the Deuce is still combat ready!
But can someone look just above the wrecker's left door mirror and tell me what that is up there? Is that the oft mentioned but never seen "A" frame that mounts on the Deuce front bumper on another vehicle behind the wrecker?

The boom looks a lot like one from an M88 recovery vehicle.

Somebody pls, explain the bumper markings.
The "decimal point" in particular. Where was the picture taken?
My 1969 8x8 has "66T" on the left front bumper and I was told it was suposed to have "WD" in front of it for "War Department", was that advise incorrect? No evidence of "WD" has been found under the paint on my bumper, just the "66T".
About the "C" on the bridge plate, does that indicate a vehicle in tow on the crane, for a wrecker? Guess it does...
Is the bumper not up-side down for a winch equipped truck?

It is correct if the winch comes with the roller assy mounted in front to guide the cable underneath the bumper. Roller and cable end can be seen in the pic.cranetruck said:

When I first saw that video, it boke my heart to see what they did to that poor truck. Now that Patrick froze a frame I see that it's an - A3 to which I say, no big loss.
