Default Re: An unimportant question for the Gods of SPMBT

My father-in-law drove an ammo truck in Korea. He's passed on now but from what I recall and the pictures we have I'm not sure that he even carried a sidearm. If things got hot his plan was to run away before the truck went sky-high with him in it. I think the ammo guys are more sensible than Rambo-heroic! There was probably some sort of shotgun or rifle in the cab but the firepower would have come from supporting units in the convoy. He claimed he was never much of a shot anyway!
