I can vividly remember the chow runs I did as a Supply Clerk in my early Army days. Using an M35A2 to make my way around the training areas of Ft. Stewart, GA. in the early 90s.

That’s incredible! When I was part of the E4 Mafia I had a Hispanic First Sergeant and I was his driver. He used to say “Yump in the yeep and don’t forget your BB gun!”.
