Were they blue like the trucks? I am planning to get a M101 to go with my truck and it occured to me that I might have to paint it blue.

Yes, they were also blue. I can provide you with the instructions for proper marking, too, if you like.

That'll be good. AF trucks are not common and one with a matching trailer will look good at the shows.

The Air Force never carried anything heavier than golf clubs - you sure they had trailers?

All of the trailers we used were either yellow or OD - of course these were munition trailers not over the road trailers and were used only on the flight line.

LOL!

Didn't they have to tow around their golf carts?

Yes, we used trailers! What do you think we used to haul our beer coolers around in?? Most of them were blue in the "olden days."

Incidentally, John, check your e-mail. I sent you the info you needed. :)

Speaking of beer coolers, we once took a water buffalo full of beer on a week-long exercise deployment. If the "brass" had ever found out about it, we'd have been royally screwed, but we got away with it. ;)

Ah, the good 'ole days. I hear that more and more now.

I got your email, Lifer, but don't know if the pic came through. I'll have to check when I get home since it won't download here at work.

Thanks for the info!! :D
