Savannah GA Veterans Day Parade 2018

Post by Halfdunn »

Hi all, just wanted to toot my horn on the recent Veterans Day Parade in Savannah GA. This year I drove my 1953 USAF R-2 Rescue Truck in the Parade behind the local Air National Guard Unit C-130 Aircraft scale model. It was a little cloudy to start with but quickly turned into a beautiful day. My vehicle ran superbly and no problems were encountered. The parade route was about an hour long and was a good test for the longer St Patrick's Day parade next March, of which we will represent MVPA also. See the attached pictures of my vehicle and the aircraft model. The C-130 is self-propelled and the props even rotate electrically.

Nice job, and I was wondering if you could post a few pictures of the inside of that good looking truck.

Thanks,

Bert
