I picked up 2 of these sections the other year off of ebay. A buddy picked up one aswell. They are great when we do the WW2 displays as I can park my jeep and carrier under them if it rains.

I had to make up the poles but figured out dimensions that seem to work really well. For the main uprights I went with 8', the ridge poles are 9' long and the ones to hold up the sides were 5'. When we had all 3 attached together the shelter was almost 30' long.

Default Tent Sections

OK, so I checked out the sections and found I have 1 "Tent Section End Panel" NSN: 8340-21-880-86, 2 Blackout Skirt (Truck end Blackout) NSN: 8340-21-880-9887, and 1 "Tent Section Roof Pent" NSN: 8340-21-880-9882. These numbers are under the NSN for theroof, W8473-2-MM1G/01-PT, FMCO and the date of manufacture.
