Wheel Thingy ID?
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.

Cushman made some tiny motorscooters for Airborne troops, but that doesn't look like any of the ones I've seen pics of in museums.

I don't know what it is but it's the first thing I've seen in awhile that I can afford gas for! _________________ "TUMBLEWEED"

That's not an US Cushman Airborne Scooter but it's one of its brother's, the British Welbike : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welbike _________________ soldat_ryan @ hotmail.com Looking for photos of Sherman manufacturer's plates

But is it a match for the Segway Special Forces Detachment?

That British Welbike is just too cool, I'd love to have one! How come I've never seen one of these before, are they that rare? _________________ SFC Jeff Button "High Angle Hell"

Warning labels - the strangest label I've ever seen was an orange label on a parachute. "Caution parachuting is known the the State of California to be dangerous. You could be killed." Yeah. No $hit, Sherlock!
