“DEUCE AND A HALF”: RUGGED, PROUDLY SERVE THE SOLDIERS

Like “an old soldier never dies, they just fade away.” The iconic 2.5 ton military vehicle aka “Deuce and a half” was for decades a main service truck of the US military services to transport soldiers and supplies in the battlefield. This is a 1967 historic M35A2 cargo truck model six cylinder, multifuel, and turbo diesel engine sitting in a friend’s backyard & is for sale for restoration. I rode on this truck while serving in the Army in 1980s. The M35 series truck was used my the US armed forces from the Korean War thru the Gulf War and still in use by over 20 countries for their military around the world. It was replaced by the Family of Military Tactical Vehicles (FMTVs) in 1991. Music credit: “Hero Memories,” Epic Soul Factory, You Tube music library.
