In all we had nine jeeps (MB/GPW, M38, M38A1C, M151A2, CJ3B) two M35A2 Deuces and my M1009 with only one break down all weekend. We drove a total of 170 miles on post, mostly off road and we got to poke around on some M1 Abrams under maintenance while some others were firing (THAT is an amazing sound!), stumbled upon a family day for a Striker unit complete with live fire on your choice of weapons (M240B, M2, M249, Barrett .50 and some bolt guns, one even suppressed), saw Bradleys on the firing range, listened to Abrams and Bradley fire in the distance all night long and poked around in a Patriot missile battery that set up across from BLORA while we were out on Saturday. We drove a total of 170 miles on post, mostly off road. IT WAS GREAT! You have a whole year to get ready for the next one!
