Have to remember back 37 Years. MRS stands for Mississippi Road Service. There was one on the navy air base at Patterson , Californa, the base name was Crows Landing. It was set up with a cable streched across runway attached to anchor chains so if a plane want to far down the runway it would hook the cable and drag the chains and stop the plane before running off end of runway. the mrs we had was equiped with a roadranger5 speed transmission and we would take it out and pull the chains back where they belonged and the airdales would hook them up, i was in the seabees. i imagine you could order them anyway you wanted.
