Crazy eights
I didn't join the reserves until 1982, so I can't speak of vehicles before I arrived. in 1976, I was a cadet.
We had a very small pool of vehicles in Brampton as I remember. One 5/4 ton sigs van, a couple of the old Deuce-and-a-half's, an M 37 radio van (which departed soon after I drove it) a few militia 1 ton Chevy's and only two or three M38A1's. We had no pedestal mounts, side mounts or anything like that around. The only pedestal mount I ever saw was in Cyprus for the M38A1's. They were still hanging around in the QM after we switched to Ilitis for RHQ Recce Troop.
