I hope he enjoyed the drive....
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.

I think he's back to more mundane duties...(Driving an M113 has got to be the zenith of anyone's career, right?)

www.nasa.gov/lb/missio..._tcdt.html

"Pilot William Oefelein wears his helmet in preparation for driving the M-113 armored personnel carrier. Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett"

"William Oefelein is the space pilot who was at the center of a love triangle that amazed the nation just a few months ago, he has now been reassigned to the Navy, his original corps. The US Space Agency has not released details about why Bill is moving back to the Navy, but it seems likely that the Lisa Nowak incident hurt his position within NASA"

Further down the same page: "In case of an emergency, the crew would hop in the seven baskets suspended from slidewires and safely slide about 1,200 feet to a landing zone on the ground." Wicked!!
