    This Jeep MAY have been used at Ft. Wolters Texas in the 60’s and 70’s as a APU Jeep. Ft. Wolters was the Primary Army Helicopter training base during the Vietnam war. Note the Jeep is yellow in color ,the snorkel port in the right side of the hood is missing (where the APU line thru) and posts are attached to the front bumper to wrap the APU line around.

    Troy: I believe you are right. I’ll update that other post.

    Rick: That’s useful information. I’ll mark this as an APU just in case.

    Hi guys, thats a nice jeep.. i would love to have it. if it came from fort wolters. that would be a piece of history and would be really neat to own. ive always been curious if there is more vehicles out there somewhere on the old base. or if they sold them all out or still used them all.. thanks for the share

    Kelly, I was a Army Pilot and flew the Last flyable helicopter from Ft. Wolters when it closed. I took a tour of the base and there were no M38A1’s on the property. I was in the Delaware ARMY National Guard and the M38A1’s were being phased out for the M151. The Delaware AIR Guard received a Ft. Wolters M38A1 for practice parachute air drops – Don’t know what ever happened to it except that it was a successful air drop at Ft. Dix N.J. I have a M38A1 that came from the Pa.Army Guard by way of the R.O.T.C. department
    at the Valley Forge Military Academy and Junior College . My hood was dented and was able to exchange the Air Guard’s parachute drop Jeep’s hood for my dented hood. Rick Kennett Square Pa.
