Bears were never an issue in wainwright. The fucking moose, elk and deer on the other hand was a different story, the deer weren’t dangerous dismounted but in blue fleet they were fucking deadly

Civilian pattern vehicles, more often then not they were navy blue, hence the name. Basically they weren’t army trucks, F-350s, econoline vans shit like that.
