March Madness 10th Mountain Pack Question

[JRKrejsa]

Just got this, and I like the subject matter and look of these. However, I have a question as to which US vehicle to use in scenario MM85: Should this be the M39 AUV- KWASL UN vehicle note 19? Or the M29 Weasel - KWASL UN Vehicle note 27? The scenario card seems pretty clear on M39, but the historical article about Operation Encore mentions Weasels.

Thanks!

I asked that question when I was inputting the scenario into the archive. The answer came back as the M39 AUV.

Original question and response, May 9th.

Hutch said:
Scenario MM85 lists the Americans as having 2 M39 Armored Utility Vehicles (KW Note 19), however the Operation Encore notes list use of the Weasel which was the M29 (KW Note 27), mentioned as the M39. What is the proper vehicle for MM85?

Danno: M39. While the Weasel was there they were not armed and not involved in combat. They did make a difference in resupply.

Thanks, to both of you!

Hutch is correct. It is the M39. Weasels were present but used mostly for supply runs. Not much combat.
