  • Attention North Dakota Military Vehicle Collector Club Members!
    Pulling the chocks out…your editor Brian M. Carlson 2018 should be another great year in the club. We got-together once again at Stan’s shop / man cave on March 3rd (thanks, Ellen, for the Cheesy Potatoes) and plotted out our course of events for our lucky thirteenth year as an organized club and affiliate chapter of MVPA. Speaking of the MVPA, those of us who are members of the national will have noticed that their two publications (Supply Line and Army Motors) will be molded into one unified club magazine. Granted, I’m not one of the “old guard” MVPA members, but in my borderline not so humble opinion, it’s about darn time. While retiring editor Reg Hodson has put a lot of sweat equity into Army Motors over the last 30-plus years, I for one will be glad to see a unified publication for all of MVPA. For those of you who aren’t MVPA members, while that is your prerogative, I highly encourage you to join the national (actually international) organization. You’ll notice fresh new advertising for them in here (including a membership form), as part of maintaining our affiliation with them. Another new advertiser you’ll notice is David Doyle Books. Some of you have seen him at the MVPA national meets, the former Iola military show, or recognize him as the Supply Line editor (or whatever the new name will become for the new combined magazine). He’s now jumped in with both feet into the retail book industry. In addition to advertising in our newsletter, he sent six books which were raffle prizes at the March 3rd meeting at Stan’s.

G. Student, Department of Mechanical Engineering, GS Mandal’s- MIT, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, (India) ABSTRACT An Amphibious vehicle is a means of transport, viable on land as well as on water even under water. It is simply may also called as Amphibian. Amphibious vehicle is a concept of vehicle having versatile usage. It can be put forward for the commercialization purpose with respect to various applications like in the field of military and rescue operations. Researchers are working on amphibious vehicle with capability to run in adverse conditions in efficient way. This paper focuses on concept of amphibious vehicle in detail. In later stage of paper we have explain and described the design and analysis of amphibious car. We have followed proper design procedure and enlisted the material used in detail. Capabilities of efficient amphibious vehicle will fulfil all the emerging needs of society. Success of every concept largely relies on research and development, though amphibious vehicle is yet to travel a long journey of innovative development, it has shown excellent potentials for future benefits.

Eng. TMC’09 Project Director and “Convoy Commander” Ready to go – Washington, DC 17 Mar'10 7 Executive Summary The 2009 MVPA Transcontinental Motor Convoy (“TMC’09”) project was authorized by the MVPA BoD as a major group event, with the hopes that it would generate internal and Public interest and enthusiasm much like the 1992 Alcan Convoy (Rondevous’92) project did. This goal appears to have been accomplished! The TMC’09 project was prepared and executed in a successful manner, evidenced by the teamwork among the Volunteers, camaraderie among all participants, regardless of duration on the Convoy, the cheers, tears, waves and salutes from thousands of people who wished the Convoy well – from DC to Ligonier, PA to San Francisco. This project was conducted during the worst global economic recession in 70+ years. An After Action Report (AAR) was prepared to identify key elements of all phases of the project and attempts to provide an objective critique of these elements.
