M38A1 Jeep | K-9 Vet Salute

This Blog is about my 1962 Vietnam War M38A1 Jeep. My AIT medical corps training was at Fort Sam Houston, Texas – Class 46 – Company C – 2nd Bn.  Basic at Fort Ord and AIT/Medic, Fort Sam Houston. My M38A1 is a way to connect with soldiers, veteran families and military organizations.

The best day for me is when a veteran family member or child rides in my Jeep wearing my Nam field jacket or helmet (much too large for their head) asking questions about the war or relating stories as told to them by their dad or grandfather. A wife or loved one will start talking . . . a short Jeep ride is restorative and forms a common bond
