I was surprised to find CMP's there. Most of the wrecks (nothing gets shipped out) were American CCKW's and Dodges with jeeps ranging from yellow MB's to air force blue M38A1's and this made sense as the base was American supplied and operated for the most part. In with the C15A water truck was a C60L and an 11 cab Ford 6x4.

Yikes!
Glad at least some of those parts were repurposed.
Thanks,
