Olive-Drab.com Directory of Military Vehicle Organizations
If you are new to military vehicles, one of the best things you can do is to find the group in your local area and start to participate. You can get advice and practical experience that cannot be obtained any other way, gain access to parts, tools, manuals and other necessities, plus have a lot of fun with great people. When you are ready to buy your first vehicle, you will have experienced hands to guide you every step of the way. Highly recommended.
