Yeah, OK, big deal, but it was a benchmark I've been semi tracking for a while now. It was at 9983 earlier this morning and now it's at 10,002.
FYI it reached 1000 on 11 May 02, and 5000 on 21 January 03.

OUTSTANDING and congratulations there Major Rob!!
I'm sure that I can speak for a lot of folks here in saying that your reference source is just wonderful and it is just plain fantastic that you've taken the time to share all that equipment that you are fortunate enough to have so close by with the rest of us!!
You've contributed so much to this site as well as allowing many of us to view the equipment first hand!
I'd like to recommend you for some sort of Armorama Medal of Honor!
(My wife thinks that your FMTV's are... ah... cute. She always thought that the 2-1/2 and 5t trucks are 'spooky'.)
Outstanding contributor Rob, my sincere thanks for 'being there'!!
P.S. Is the arms room by chance open yet?

Rob,
I can't remember if I already passed this on but I did create a shortcut URL for your motorpool.
https://armorama.kitmaker.net/motorpool
Congrats on the 10K! We are going to have to figure out what to do once I have the new gallery installed because I am thinking we may not want to have to run both (the existing one is a big resource drain... memory, cpu time etc.) Hopefully there will be an easy way of capturing all the images and uploading them to the new system en-mass.
Cheers,
Jim
