Mound Bayou Mississippi
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.

No Pack, Place is known as "The Hut". Hey, I've used BFR's as chock blocks before, worked good when the parking brake was inop (M60's). That way if you forgot it was there you didn't lose anything important when you drove off. Like the steel block needed for rail loading to get home . Joe D

usage: "Yeah, me'n Tony was plinkin' at BFR's with .45's all night on bunker guard detail."
