I was in the Army in the mid to late '70's. During that time the
Army replaced their fleet of 5/4 ton trucks with M880 Dodge Power Wagons,
which were basically off the shelf '70's Dodge 3/4 trucks with 318 engines and
torqueflite transmissions. As a mechanic, I had one that was a contact
maintenance truck.
I had some training at the Army center in Warren,
Michigan. It was on the same site that had the Chrysler tank plant, they
were building M60A3's at the time.

Just a Happy Birthday to all of the Army folks, past and
present, who served their country, and love their Mopars. June
14th, is the 237th birthday for the U.S. Army.
OMC: Anyone alive today who served from WWII through today's Army
(including Chargers currently used as MP vehicles on many posts),
who rode in Sherman tanks, Power Wagons, M60s, Jeeps, or many other vehicles,
rode in, on, or with Mopars. Thanks to our Veterans, and the Mopars they
have used to defend freedom.
