In 2015 Dudley Went To Farmington Field To See The Restored Military Vehicles ..,
organized by the Military Vehicle Preservation Association (MVPA). They were recreating the historic 1920 journey of a Military Convoy from Washington DC to San Diego CA on the historic Bankhead Highway.
Dudley enjoyed looking at many of the vehicles on display. One of the neatest was the Half Track which had a map of the route painted on the back. Dudley talked to the driver and told him he wished he was able to make a trip like that. The next morning Dudley was up before sunrise and parked near the Marys Creek Bridge on the route of the original Bankhead as it went towards Aledo. Dudley took a great video of the entire convoy as it rolled by. One of the first vehicles to go by was the Half Track. If you did not recognize it by sight, you could not miss that unmistakeable sound as it passed by!
