    Old Trailers Rot Slowly Where A-6s Once Taxied

    Some of you noticed the old trailers in the background of the photos of the DOTS '88 Toyota pickup, and I anticipated that you'd want to see more of them when I shot the truck!



    Much of the former Alameda Naval Air Station, once home to the USS Enterprise, USS Carl Vinson, and tens of thousands of sailors (including Lieutenant Commander Richard Nixon), is now used for cheap storage as various government agencies wrangle over what will be done with all that prime- if somewhat toxic- real estate. These old trailers sit, apparently abandoned, near the absinthe-distilling Hangar One facility. Can anyone identify the manufacturer of each one?
