[/url]]"If it wasn’t for those trucks, we would have lost a lot more," says Powell. "They helped get my wounded back to the camp and saved their lives. My Ford truck kept running until it reached the Camp Field Hospital, and then shut off. Just like an old horse fighting to save its master, it just wouldn’t quit."
