CMP Production End?

[JD Baillie]

Don,
Thanks for that! I have never worked on or driven a CMP. Have seen them first hand in a small museum here in Victoria. I learned how to drive on the M37s M211s and M38AIs and have done the usual field fixes on those and others.
If the specialist CMPs were in service that long, they would have been well used but well maintained long after the others had been sold out. Wonder where they have all ended up? I would think a specialist truck would have continued in its role in the civi world.
I did have a Sgt who said that the CMPs out performed the M37s in field conditions. Interesting that today the overwhelming design of military trucks tends towards a cabover instead of the great hood out front. You would think that just SOMEWHERE we could learn a bit from history.

Thanks again.

JD
