Updated with identification - but could still use some help with the last two - one is identified (painted on) as an LVTP5A1, but the other one?

I agree, this is a great find.
Pics from Barstow storage area are nearly impossible to find.

I think the world is getting smaller or simply I had a luck to find this photo gallery. But last days I find photos that some years ago I couldn't find even if tried a lot.

I believe the guy who posted these pics is a modeler on the Finescale forum. If it's the guy I'm thinking of, I think he's an AMTRAC'er at Camp Pendleton.
