I can't find the pics! Where are the pictures you posted? I know you wouldn't come here with a great story and not post pics? Would you?
We're very visual here. We need some pics.

That is a great way to honor them. I did the same thing and put my stepsson's 1st outfit on the bumper. It is a great feeling. Thanks to your sons for their service

Re: proud m37 owner
I am going to be stenciling up my M37 as a Vietnam era 9th Inf Div truck. I served with the 9th from 1985 to 1987. I have my M1009 stenciled with the unit and bumper number of my vehicle while I was with the 1st Inf Div (FWD) in Germany and Iraq, MI-212. That, however was an M-577 and not a M1009.
USAR 1980-1983
US Army 1983 to 1993 05H20Y4, 98G2LGM
Desert Storm 1990 to 1991, 1st Inf Div.

1944 GPW 1/4 T
1953 M37 3/4 T

More Army Surplus stuff than you can shake a stick at.

Re: proud m37 owner
Hal,
My truck is stenciled as a 9th Inf, 15th Combat Engineers Command truck, H&HQ Co.
I was in the Army from '68 to '71 and not in Germany (I wanted to go to Germany, but the Army wanted me elsewhere). I was also not in the 9th Inf nor in the Engineers.
Interesting coincidence about the truck markings though.
