I trained on the Duster in 1978, at Fort Bliss. I was an Ohio National Guardsman. We had these until late 80's, before being replaced with the Stinger. Few years later, the stinger was replaced by the Hawk. DusterS were a blast to shoot and drive. During annual training, we would have 16 tracks on the range at White Sands. we would shoot at those R/C planes. They pulled a banner 1000 yards behind it. Occasionally, a pilot flying a A6 Intruder would pull a banner. At the time, only 4 States fielded the M42. Ohio, New Mexico, South Carolina and Florida.

*There's a M42 Duster located in a rather strange place near the Stewart Avenue entrance to Eisenhower Park here on Long Island.*

I was an engineer in Vietnam '69 to '70, we had a quarry site and at night a duster crew lived there and would do perimeter security with us.

You can see the m42 duster green cove springs Florida at any time simply stop by the cricket wireless store and tell them that you found the hidden coupon and they will take you to the m42 about 1/4 mile south on 17 and a half mile east on 16 right by the enormous amphibious cargo vehicle in the local military museum.

I've seen that one too. There are some at Blanding but I'm not sure if they're at the entrance anymore. I've seen them in the back though

Excellent video and yes, I realize that English is not the narrator's native language; HOWEVER, you really need to slow down and ENUNCIATE. Practice speaking in front of a mirror, friend or family member. Listening to news/talk radio is an excellent way to not only improve your English but to also improve your overall knowledge.
