Pioneer trailer?

Post by refit1701 »

Would a pioneer trailer be appropriate for a AF m37? I may be able to get one here in B'ham.

Would it be blue or OD or ??

While in the Air Force (66-70) and the Air Guard (75-90) most of the trailers I saw were either yellow or OD...

Actually, yes. TAC civil engineering squadrons would have used them for "bare base" construction in combat areas. These would have been blue with yellow markings. I can't get to my T.O. at the moment because it's still in storage until I find a house, but when I do, I might be able to help you with the appropriate markings.

Thanks, guys.

I will check out the trailer and see if it's something I want.
