Fort Bliss- Duster, Vulcan Cannon & ZSU 23-4
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

HI Folks!

- Dontos

Hatch missing...???

Don

We have a bingo!

The base for the radio operator's hatch has broken lose and the hatch is laying down inside the hull, leaving the interior open to the elements.

Well done CIA member Dontos!
Sgt, Scouts Out!

Thank You, Thank You....
Thank you very much....(w/ cheesy Elvis 'draw'...)

My Dad would be proud. He did some time with Duster unit in Vietnam (circa 66) and served as NG advisor for ADA unit in Florida (circa 1971-73) which was equipt with Dusters.

My first 'real' model, was the M42 'Duster'. I guess some 'Duster' knowledge wore off on me after all.

Cool

Don

Hi everyone,
Here is a picture of the Data plate I took when I was at Bliss hanging out with Roy. Would have never got it if it wasn't for him trying the obvious, opening the front access hatch Shocked

In case it's not legible it is:

Serial Number 514 (and there is no number outside we could find that matched)

Overhauled at RRAD (Red River Army Depot) 3-78

It's nice to have a decent connection finally
