HEMMTT FTW.

Gotta love the MP's... I have an MP battalion in my Brigade that's always our biggest source of problem children.

I know that, that's a typo I didn't catch.

Nice.

If I would actually be signed for all the shit I drive, I would be a Master Driver/Mechanic.

<---- Mechanic that moves all the shit around all the time.

Consider yourself lucky you're NOT the Master Driver, trust me. Especially in the Guard/Reserves... so much shit gets done under the table with licenses,you really don't want to be responsible if they do a COMET inspection. How many times has your unit done "driver training" to license people on HMWWV's, 5-tons or LMTV's in one day? I'm sure they do it a lot... per regulation, driver training for HMWWV's is supposed to be 5 days. I forget what it is for the others off the top of my head.. I'd have to go look. I know for a fact the 348-E's in the SAMS-E box at the unit where I'm deploying are all jacked up.. missing training in the remarks section, etc.

I'm a trained Master Driver... but they haven't officially appointed me yet, even though I'm the only one in the unit. I'm not exactly in any hurry to point that out to anyone.

We have 3 MD's in my unit alone.

As fars as the 348's, well... there are none current right now. ND just switched to SAMS and only the shops have them. The individual unit does not have the capability at this time to go in and generate the license, or even do a scrub from ULES to SAMS.
