robinb Posted October 16, 2019 Share #1 Posted October 16, 2019 Just recovered this truck from a farm. It's going to be restored back to military. Anyone know what the unit marking on the bumper means? AUGD-TMP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Robin, great find, I am checking through a few files if I can for the ' AUGD ' section, I believe the TMP would be Transportation Motor Pool . happy rebuild. lewis .

Steindaddie Posted October 26, 2019 Share #13 Posted October 26, 2019 "AUGD" = Army, Utah General Depot(?). I have no knowledge on the subject, but I assumed "A" was for Army, then looked for a "UGD". The Utah Depot immediately popped up. And, nice truck!
