Speaking of 5/4 T axles...

When we got our brand new vehicle in '76, me being Bn Sig O checked out all the kit that was issued with the vehicle.

There was a Deviation Record attached to the Check List which listed the components of the Unstucker...a self recovery device which had cast drums attached to the rear axles and a pully arrangement to give you self propelled extraction.

That DR never was filled and I have neither heard nor seen this device on any 5/4.

Guess the Army figured that Bluebell was always available.
