Vietnam Marines question

Did the Marines use shipboard MSE when they were on the ground in revetments in country? Like did they use shipboard mules or other MSE to tow their a/c around or start carts etc? Or did they use Airforce equipment or maybe even their own? Just curious as i have files for a mule and some add on mods for it. Very few pics of MSE around Marine a/c.

Thanks Saul. I'll blow up the pic but I'm not seeing any mules. Interesting that they had central point refuelling. I hated the fuel pit at Barbers point. The few times I refuelled there the hoses leaked and one time the damn hose fell off the nozzle after I attached it to the a/c.

Bob MSE is Maintenance Support Equipment.. Mules, huffers or Air Start Units, Power carts etc. Also known at AMSE or Aircraft Maintenance Support Equipment..

From what I understand, the mule... would be US Navy equipment. I will try to find a photo or video to confirm.
