I shot maybe 600 Kodachrome slides between Vietnam (infantry advisor, IV Corps), and then several decades later, having used my GI bill to become a physician, as chief of staff of the busiest EVAC hospital in the Desert Storm war. Here is an arial view i shot of my hospital, 300 miles out in the desert. We saw 35,000 patients while we were open for business, more than any other military hospital in that war. Not long ago I had some hundreds digitalized, but since this is a forum about M 37's, I doubt the moderators really want me posting war pictures. And thanks to you also, welcome home.

The GENERAL Section is for talking about M37 Trucks and such.

Please feel free to post your non M37 related pictures in the SOAP BOX section Hal. I know that we would all like to see more of them.

Please post your war pictures in the soapbox section. I love seeing life in the military from a personal experience through pictures.

You would be Most Welcome to post your pics in the SoapBox section, the history of these trucks is every bit as important as the vehicles themselves. Sharing this information would be of much interest to everyone and it would be greatly appreciated...
