I believe that the old trucks we worked on, like the duece and a half, 5 ton, HET , ect, had asbestos brake linings. I worked on ALOT of breaks im my 5.5 years in the army. we never were issued any breathing appratus, never hosed the pads down before working on them, no precautions really. I wonder how many soldiers have asbestos in thier lungs, that will turn cancerous in thier lives. (asbestos particles stay trapped in the lungs, and u get asbestosis).
