[QUOTE="rod, post: 1476351, member: 5382"] I should warn you that I was trained to be both a wheeled vehicle and track mechanic when I was drafted in 1968. What I ended up being assigned to do in Vietnam was to drive an armored personnel carrier (APC) for six months and be the gunner on a 50 Cal. machine gun on the same track for the other 6 months. I never touched a tool box in Vietnam other than to strip a few valuable items off a disable APC before we blew it up so it wouldn't fall into enemy hands. If you are ever asked in basic training if you know how to drive a truck--beware. You could end up pushing a wheelbarrow all day long. [/QUOTE]
