G'day Lionel,
Thanks for that informative link. On the side, the Australian Army trialled two T24 Studebaker Weasel's in August 1945 and there is a small reference to the recovery of a Weasel that was stuck fast in the mud by an unladen truck tracked one ton. I think that the truck noted in the trial report is indeed the same as yours. I will attach an extract from this report however I must acknowledge Ian Fawbert for sourcing this information from the AWM and kindly passing it on to us.
Cheers
John W.
As a footnote: The tests were carried out at Lang Lang, Victoria.
