Military Bases - Always a Ball of Fun (not)

I am currently getting unloaded at the US Army Depot in Chambersburg, PA.  I am split between my views of delivering to military bases.  On one note, I love going to them because it's exciting, on the other hand, it is a PAIN IN THE REAR!  Security checks, checking out your truck, scrutinizing your paperwork.  They sent us back and fourth all over the base before finally getting us to the right spot to get unloaded.  We are haulin' a load of 26 APU's (Auxiliary Power Units), for use on APC's (Armored Personal Carriers).  We picked them up at a military contractor in Alabama, which was a pretty cool yard.  Guys driving around all over the place in these APC's.





This weekend is looking like it is going to be another long one.  We go to pick up in Gettysburg, PA at 1:00pm, for two stops.  One in North Carolina, and one in Alabama.  However we cannot deliver the NC stop until Monday!  Oh well another weekend of sitting.
