While going thru my daily ritual of looking for new and exciting M37 "in action" pictures I came across this on Flickr:
The caption included with the picture reads:
"The 3/4 ton truck with an MSQ-85 AV module on the back was my office in Vietnam.
The box contained a printing press, movie projector, slide projector, loudspeakers, and a generator.
The trailer in the back could have anything from leaflets, magazines, and gifts of soap, to 105mm rounds (full of leaflets)."
The Commo hut on the back is great but what I like about this picture is the way the AN/GRC-160 is mounted to the passenger door and the antenna mounted in the can holder. Has anyone ever seen a radio and antenna mounted in that way?

P.S. My M37 "in action" reference library is now over the 750 picture mark.
Very interesting Commo set up

wow that is a great picture. Thanks for posting it. Ya the antenna in the fuel can holder is really different.

Morgan,
Nice find. Looks like the site has been updated quite a bit since I initially found the picture, a lot has been added.
