Re: Detroit Diesel Thread

Hello, I just now found this and am back from memory lane.
At 19 the Air Force sent me to work on Detroit,s in there boats. Yes 21footers with 6V-53s, 45' with twin 8v-71s, 63' with 12v-71s, 85' with 16v-71s and 92s . The gen packs were 4s and 6s. I worked on them until Gram / Rudman said the AF didn't need a navy, about 10 years.
What a great time I had then and now thinking of it.
Thanks. kenn
