MVPA meaning in Governmental ?

The Military Vehicle Preservation Association (MVPA) is an association whose mission is 'To provide an international organization for military vehicle enthusiasts, historians, preservationists and collectors interested in the acquisition, restoration, preservation, safe operation and public education of historic military transport.'

The association was originally started as the MVCC - Military Vehicle Collectors Club. After a number of years, it was changed to the IMVCC - International Military Vehicle Collectors Club, to reflect the increasing interest and influx of non-American collectors. But after just a couple of years it changed to its current name.

In 2019, the group organized a cross country trip commemorating the 100th anniversary of the 1919 Motor Transport Corps convoy, which involved 81 Army vehicles traveling from Washington, DC to San Francisco. The re-enactment included over 40 classic military vehicles, and traveled from York, Pennsylvania to San Francisco. The group has completed five transcontinental convoys.
