an old soldier's documents ......

Post by 36x24 »

I just got my third M37 (1963)because as you all know you can never have enough. I got it because it has a winch and a CCKW hardtop, both of which I need to finish my 1951. This one has something special though; its document jacket is still with it! Depot maintenance, unit maint, u/gs, travel; all there! I uploaded some of them to my gallery page(Jim O'Brien) for you to look at. Curious as to what more informed viewers make of them; I have a lot of other documents as well but the ones posted will give you a feel for the M37's pedigree. Hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
