Carlisle Events and the U.S. Army Heritage Center are issuing a call for all military vehicles to join a Mid-Atlantic Pool of Military Trucks to be displayed at the 2011 Carlisle Truck Nationals, August 5-7, at the Carlisle Fairgrounds in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.

Those who participate will receive a discounted admission, which includes the opportunity for awards and recognition of their vehicle. With the help of the U.S. Army Heritage Center in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, the Carlisle Truck Nationals hopes to exceed the 2010 show field turnout, which included a convoy of Vietnam war era gun trucks and their veteran crews.

The Carlisle Truck Nationals draws truck enthusiasts of every stripe, from light trucks up to 18-wheelers. Special guests for the weekend include Kelvin Locklear from Outcast Kustoms and the Trick My Truck program on CMT as well as Brian Fisher from Fisher’s ATV World on the Outdoor Channel. Annually, the Carlisle Truck Nationals is one of the largest truck events in the nation, typically boasting a field of more than 2,000 trucks.
