LARC V - a part of the above formation with Robby Robertson from Illinois
as the operator. (Nice guy; he took really good care of his LARC.
He was a sprint car racer before coming into the service.)

A nice photo of a cluster of LARC V's from the 305th
Transportation Company on the beach at Fort Story,
Virginia getting ready to cross the beach to meet up
with a Navy LST in the distance.

LARC V, hull number 769, the "Can Leaky".
This was our LARC for maintenance platoon;
we put her back together with parts we begged, borrowed,
stole (oops! did I say that?) ....I meant to say, borrow
for an indefinite period of time (ha ha).
There's a story in this, which I'll write about at another time!

The one with the smile and the nice teeth is the LARC V, #750, "Super-Lizard".
The parasite next to it is that grubby lizard-mechanic! (Yours truly!)
Mr. Galvan is the creator of the great artwork.
(He's probably doing artwork on low-riders
back home; I hope so, anyway!)

| (1993) LARC V trying to take off with my wife to go mate!
(I told her not to feed this thing!)(By the way, this particular LARC V
was previously used by the Port Clinton, Ohio Fire Department.)
