Pete,

I don't have an address for the Quartermaster Museum, but it's located at
Fort Lee, Virginia and I would think that they would have a web site. I bet
that, if you start with something general, like "Army", and use your search
engine, you should be able to narrow it down pretty quickly. Good Luck.

John

Hello all,

Does anyone know a web site address for the Army Quartermaster Corps
Museum? Or if there even is one?

An Army Motors article from 1942 reprinted in Military Vehicles Magazine
number 19 was a nice summary of the various vehicles used and maintained
by the QMC. It included a description of a mobile commissary/post
exchange body designed to be mounted on a deuce and a half. It had
dozens of bins for storing items of interest to the man in OD. I believe
this may have been the origin of the "ammo wagons" used by Ringling
Brothers referred to in a recent posting to the list.

If anyone can help, I will make sure that the info gets passed along.

Thanks in advance.
