It is from the great lakes military recreation center. It is for
real. It works, as most military surplus stuff does. They get an
allowance every year, if they do not write off old stuff/get new
stuff, then thy get their allowance cut.

to pump ****, etc from boats holding tanks into the marina holding
tank. Works great. Has four casters, a key, brakes, works from 115V,
