Motor Mechanics

To be a competent motor mechanic, I must learn to disassemble, repair, and reassemble all types of truck engines, power transmission systems, steering assemblies, and brakes. I must learn how to service and adjust motor trucks periodically in order that they may be kept in perfect working order.

I addition, I must learn how to select and train drivers, how to conduct a motor column on the march, how to keep vehicles operating efficiently in extremes of heat and cold, how to operate motor parks, and how to transport motor equipment by rail.

When my training is completed, I will be competent to service and repair the motor vehicles of the unit to which I am finally assigned, and to make sure that its transportation will be ready to do the job for which it was designed.
