Hey y'all I'm in need of some help. I have some decals from Mec Models for the M113 in Vietnam. I want do either "Comander Bond 007 Vol VI!," "Mellow Yellow" or "Kathy's Klown." The problem is I cant find anything on the internet(or maybe I'm not typing in right info on google). I was wondering if anyone out there has web sites or photos of these vehicles. Thanks

Commander Bond, 1st Battalion, 5th Infantry Regiment. It was the command track for the Recon Platoon. Add the name Howard Craig to your search.

The decals are missing the "RECON" just above the front fender on the side opposite the driver.

There are at least 2 photos in this album:
007

If you type in "007" in the search section you find another photo of 007 with the hood up.

Notice it has the Okinawa commander shields.

Mellow Yellow, 4th Battalion, 23rd Infantry, Tomahawks.

It didn't carry the rear ACAV shields and can be seen with M151 jeep seats in their place. I've got some photos and links saved on my laptop, I'll get back to you. I should have something on Kathy's Klown too.

Anytime, glad to help.

I'm not having much luck finding Kathy's Klown in my archives but there is a photo on the Mec Models site when you click on the decal sheet.
