On November 11th, we had the opportunity to return the Huntsville Legion MkII carrier to parade status after a 26 year hiatus. We started the refurbishment and overhaul of this carrier 4 years ago. It had sat outside of the Legion as a static display for over 22 years and a small group of us just didn't want to see it rust away into oblivion. While restoration continues through this winter, the Huntsville Legion has constructed a proper dry, viewable storage building for the carrier. It will be re-dedicated to the Legion in May 2012 as part of the Huntsville Legion's 80th anniversary celebrations. Attached are a couple of shots of it in the snow and on parade. (The carrier was off loaded the night before and I wish I had a picture of it in the dark, front and rear lights on, instrument light on, purring a way at a smooth idle)
