Nice, brings back memories, I drove the M52A2 Fort Carson CO 4th S&T 4th ID 4th PLT Bco 1976 1977 and at Camp Casey Korea 1977 1978 2nd S&T 2nd ID 2nd PLT Bco 5 ton tractor trailer company. Pulled van flatbed lowboy.
Late reply...But,the five ton bridge truck from this series was actually the M348.They can be confused as a ten ton truck,and the reason why is because they used 48/1400×20 tires which is what the M123 & M125 both had as well. All of the other five ton trucks during this time only had 39/900×20's which are the non directional tires. The M52 only came as a semi truck.
