M-37 truck

 

Sgt Grit,
In your 2Feb2012 newsletter, T. Stewart asked about a truck he called a “weapons carrier”.  I believe the truck his referring to is a M-37.  I’ve attached a couple of pictures I found.  When I first arrived in Vietnam, Sept 1966, several of us were told we would spend the next 2 weeks providing security for a LAAM  Battery atop hill 327.  Our ‘hooch was at the base of 327 so we were trucked day and night in the back of a M-37, called just a PC if I remember correctly, up and down the hill.  I definitely remember that after 2-3 days of up and down the road, more like a path, in the back of the ‘PC’ I was more concern with surviving the ride than I was of the possible VC attack.
