Oshkosh Truck sales looking great
Life in the defense industry is good. Go, Iraq! The more trucks they blow up, the better for OT!

1. Last I heard,
Oshkosh Truck was desperately looking for Sub-contractors because they couldn't handle all the work....

One contract was valued at $6 BILLION!

3. They do hire "trainers"
They need people who know how to train others....aside from that, they need people to write tech manuals etc....

5. is it true they're making a lot of vans and SUV's with shackles in them?
It's another random rumor to debunk.
