Event: Randolph AFB Air Show
Date: 27-May-2000
Location: Randolph Air Force Base, San Antonio Texas
Description: This was a fun event to partake in along with our
fellow club members from San Antonio. I trailered the jeep to a club
members house, unloaded and waited for another member to show up. From
there, the three of us (2 M38's and my M38A1) drove about 20 miles to the Air
Force base where we were promptly allowed entry without admission. We
setup under the wing of a C5 Galaxy and learned we were about 1/2 mile from
where we should be. So, we packed up and moved closer to the flight line
and where the spectators would be. We enjoyed a fantastic air show display
of restored F4's and F105's along with the Thunderbirds. We also responded
to many inquires about our vehicles and the club activities. After the
show, we drove back, loaded up and headed home. During the trip, I noticed
the speedometer started 'bouncing' a bit. Seems another gremlin is
beginning to appear...

The M38A1 parked under the wind
of a C-141 Starlifter or one VERY LARGE plane! I kink of like the
reflection of the under wing on the jeep - looks like a flash and
reflector was used for the picture. |

In addition to my '53 M38A1
(left), we had a '52 M38 (center) and a '51 M38 (right). Both M38's
are club members from San Antonio. |
