Howdy, John...
I have been searching for a WWII era 3/4 ton trailer to use with my WC52. I'm absolutely sure I have seen it somewhere in all my references. It's not in my original, TM 9-2800 dated 1 September 1943, or my reproduction TM 9-2800-1 dated February 1953.
Perhaps there was one listed for sale in ARMY MOTORS/SUPPLY LINE. I am fascinated by how many "prototypes" are available.
The CARGO, TRAILER, 1-TON had a long and diverse life. Here are photos of them in Korea along with left over WWII 3/4 ton trucks. I've tried to check some measurements by adjusting the picture scale. The trailer behind the WC-52 is a 1-TON.
In any case... I am looking for a WWII era 3/4 ton trailer
