Simply log in and view ALL MVCC newsletters in [email protected] full color. Greetings MVCC! So as always, I hope everyone is still making it in the latest Stay-At-Home orders. The question on everyone’s mind is – Are we still having a meet? The short answer is YES. The long answer is the MVCC will work to have a safe and fun gathering for our members and guests. As I said in the last newsletter, it may not be a “swap meet” or a “club campout” but an “outdoor museum” to showcase the history of military transport. Your MVCC board is working to have every- thing in place to have a great meet at Camp Plymouth as well as contingency plans for the event or circumstances that may re- quire changes to make this happen. So, as of December 12, this is what will be the requirements for each of the following groups/activities: Campsites with no selling: In your own site you are not required to wear a mask or keep 6ft, as long as it is only your site -mates. -

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. -

FEATURING the FORD GPA APRIL 2014 ISSUE NUMBER—11 THE SS THISTLEGORM Divers explore the rusting trains, trucks and motorbikes on the WWII British munitions ship sunk by a German bomber off the coast of Egypt. By Emma Thomas A piece of history frozen in time beneath the waves has been documented in amaz- ing photographs. The SS Thistlegorm shipwreck, a British munitions ship sunk by a German bomber in 1941 off the coast of Egypt, lays undisturbed. Now turned into a world-class diving site, the wreckage provides a fascinating insight into the past. SS Thistlegorm: The vessel's cargo included: Bedford trucks, Universal Carrier ar- moured vehicles, Norton 16H and BSA motorcycles, Bren guns, cases of ammuni- tion, and 0.303 rifles as well as radio equipment, Wellington boots, aircraft parts, and two LMS Stanier Class 8F steam locomotives. Twisted metal of the war ship's hull has lain in the same place for more than 60 years after ship was bombed by German planes in the Second World War. The mer- chant ship lies in the Straits of Gubal in the Northern Red Sea and time has stood still for the supply ship which still has its cargo on board. Built in Sunderland, the SS Thistlegorm completed three voyages to the USA, Argentina and the West Indies before its ill-fated mission to Suez. SS THISTLEGORM Built: January 1941 Launched: 9th April 1940 Type: Steamship, single screw Gross Tonnage: 4898 tonnes Length: 415 feet/126m Sale price: £115,000 Crew: 41 Bombed: 6th October 1941 Casualties: 9 Killed Depth-Deepest: 30m Depth-Shallowest: 13m VOYAGES: 1) USA to bring back steel rails and aircraft parts 2) Argentina, returning with grain 3) West Indies for sugar and rum 4) Final voyage to Suez The vessel's cargo included: Bedford trucks, Universal Carrier armoured vehicles, Norton 16H and BSA motorcycles, Bren guns, cases of ammunition, and 0.303 ri- fles as well as radio equipment, Wellington boots, aircraft parts, and two LMS Sta- nier Class 8F steam locomotives. -
Il Dopoguerra Della Jeep
IL DOPOGUERRA DELLA JEEP Quando, nella primavera del 1945, con il termine della 2° GM venne interrotta la produzione della MB/GPW, la Willys immaginando un possibile uso agricolo della sua creatura mise in commercio la prima CJ (Civilian Jeep): questa altri non era che la MB militare con alcune modifiche: il cambio venne spostato al volante (per adeguarlo alle abitudini degli utenti civili), poi i fari vennero modificati per migliorarne l’efficienza nel traffico ed inoltre uno sportello venne aggiunto alla paratia posteriore per facilitare carico e scarico delle merci e questo comportò lo spostamento della ruota di scorta sulla fiancata destra. Era nata la CJ2 nel Giugno del 1945. Il cambio al volante creò dei problemi e quindi dopo breve tempo si passò alla versione CJ2A, con l’originale cambio a pavimento della MB che rimase in produzione fino al 1949 Nel 1946 la Willys mise anche in commercio la grossa Station Wagon 4-63 a 7 posti e 2 ruote motrici con il motore Go Devil a 4 cilindri della MB/CJ2 ed il cambio al volante di quest’ultima; questo modello, dal ’48, venne anche offerto con motore a 6 cilindri, (Lightning 2433 cmc) sempre a valvole laterali, con la denominazione 6-63. Nel 1949, sul telaio di questo modello, entrò in produzione un cabriolet a due porte: VJ2 Jeepster (1948-1950) con il motore a 4 cilindri mentre la versione VJ3 montava il 6 cilindri. Nel ’49 la CJ2A venne sostituita dalla CJ3A (1949-1953) che, in occasione della Guerra di Corea, diede origine alla versione militare M38 (vedi scheda tecnica alla pagina Modelli).
