Yeah guys, Ive got a block heater, oil pan heater, tranny pan heater, and a battery blanket. The reason we are up there is......b/c the Army thinks its a good idea.lol. Thanks Mcss, but they did send us to a warmer climate....Iraq! Its all good, Ive got this summer in Iraq and then another winter in AK and its back to the lower 48. And as far as the "aerodynamic" bumper goes, well you should see how some of these retards up there! And moose do a number on a front end. Its better to be safe than sorry.

 

yeah, i saw the mythbusters moose episode....not too pretty

 

No worries Soldier glad you made it back and thank you for your service to this Great Nation. I fought in the Prelude to this mess in the Beruit,Lebanon conflict in the early 80's. I agree with you the better safe than sorry, in my Force Recon team we had a saying " Chance Favors the Prepared Mind ". Good luck and be safe.

 

i do believe we are stationed in AK is because of the japanese invasion during WWII. don't want that to happen again eh?

 

Actually, if you want the history behind it....we are there b/c it is the fastest way to get to Russia. Bunch of cold war BS.

 

this is true my friend

 

hell all they had to do is pay attenetion to the radar, birds my @ss.

 

The Kiska/Attu invasion ... not Pearl.

anyway, i do believe i might go to a junkyard somewhere and pick up a couple of those fans off a hi-po ford v8 that vwdodge was talking about. and just make my own brackets.

 

do you guys thank that a lincoln Mark VIII electric fan is worth $45.00
