Hidden Treasures in a Motor Pool
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

While climbing & crawling thru the Motor Pool to ID vehicles, found a few interesting items laying around. Regards Don

Looks like school house training aids no longer used. Bottom two I'm quite familiar with. Although one is no longer the version used. Check your PM _________________ Joe_D

The last item is a older version of a fuel nozzle for the M1A1. The item before that is an 'exciter' (or is that the 'ignitor'??). Sorta the spark plug on the Abrams. Don

Ascout When I first saw the M151 grill, for some reason it reminded me of one of the episodes of 'MASH', inwhich 'Radar' was suspected of mailing home a jeep, piece by piece, thru the mail. Regards Don
