Guys,
(*Cc to MV List)

Did you ever think you'd own a military vehicle? All the time, right? The
Jeep you've always wanted....for you.....and perhaps for your kids to enjoy
with their Dad. Did you ever think you might NEVER own a military vehicle?
Now try THIS on for size......did you ever think you might be telling your
wide-eyed son how in the good old days, citizens could actually purchase and
own former military equipment!?

If anyone ever thought the Government's bad attitude towards your owning
military surplus or former military vehicles has gotten any better with the
defeat of House Bill 1062, think again. If they can't find a way to go out
and cut up every piece of former military equipment that found its way into
the hands of citizens, then they'll begin with the here and now and make
sure that YOUR kids will never see the likes of all the good stuff we've
been able to collect over the years by DESTROYING everything that goes out
the gates.

I just saw the tattered remains of several pallets of brand spanking new
modern ammo cans (yeh, the ones the size of the WWII 50 cal ammo cans that
are perfect for JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING!) immediately after they left the
hands of the government. Uncle Sam wants to be sure these DANGEROUS ammo
cans can never be used for or against us ever again. To accomplish this,
they caved in the side of EACH INDIVIDUAL CAN with a press. Nice, huh? No
more nice, cheap, portable, waterproof containers for YOU!

If this is their attitude towards ammo cans, take a moment and imagine what
they'd like to do to your GI Toothbrush, Socks, Boots, Ammo Belt, Helmet,
Garand, Jeep, Weapon Carrier, Deuce, DUKW, Scout Car, Half-track, APC or
(God FORBID!) Tank!

Just another reason to join the MVPA. PLEASE join us. Get a voice & BE
HEARD. Do it for yourself. Do it for your kids.

Regards,
TJ Smith
