Mary sends a link to a story about a community that pulled together and fixed up a beat-up truck that was the dream vehicle of a deployed soldier from Branson, MO;

Sweet!
After today, seeing this was . . . good. Damn good.
Thanks for posting it, Jonn.
Definitely worth the time taken to see it. Thanks for posting it, Jonn.
Good on them for that, but the motor was skipping and the paint and body work were subpar with tons of runs and fisheyes in the paint. The wood screws in the bowtie was awesome too. Still, awesome of them to do that for the guy.
Please don’t take my comment as knocking down what they did for him, just pointing out some things they may not have had time to finish doing before he returned home. I’m a car guy, things like that stick out for me.
No worries, Lando. I noticed the sheet rock screws, too. No biggie.
That trooper is a happy camper. I would be, too. Thanks to those folks for helping him out.
Cool…. 😀
Good on them for doing it. Welcom Home Specialist!! Aiborne!!
A man and his truck………..a special bond.
Ask Jonn or TSO about my 94 Dodge. Wait for them to stop laughing, though.
#9 OT
Is that bond. . . or Bondo?
Nice!
@10: Ha!! No bondo, but I think it needs a couple…….gallons. 🙂
Fantastic. Gotta luv a truck!
Finally, a legitimate story. Glad to know he didn’t scam the community for some free truck repairs.
A well deserved gift for that young warrior.
