The M151 (as we called it) is a ¼-ton 4×4 utility truck(say whut??). Of course we all knew it as a jeep! Here is some info ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M151_%..._utility_truck ), driving them in off road, hilly, full of brush/trees, is a BLAST! Spent many hours/days using the Philadelphia ANG's vehicles at McGuire AFB in New Jersey training the Civil Engineering Squadron Prime Beef mission (BEEF stood for Base Engineering Emergency Force) during semi-annual and annual training over at US Army Base Ft. Dix training reservation east of McGuire AFB. Besides the Dix weapons ranges, we trained a lot at a place set up there called 'Vietnam Village'. From 1978 to 1985 we used (signed out for, inter-services agreements) the Philiadelphia National Guard M151's, M35's, M813's, and even an M113 APC (Armored Personnel Carrier). A - Z training, convoy in the vehicles to Dix, base camp, security, support, breakdown site/base, home...Those were the days...
