Sorry guys; looks like I stired up a fire storm based on bad information. To all; I am not attempting to "reinvent" history. I thought I was onto a piece of little known history.
Just talked to some folks at Quantico and they are saying essentially the same thing; there is NO RECORD of the 3ed Marine Division, (or any Marine unit) using the T-16 so to one and all, sorry for the misinformation.
the party in Carolina; if I ever find his ID again, I'll attempt to folow up with his source before proceeding.
I do intend to attempt to restore a T-16 but I'll focus on the mechanical end of it for now until I find out which US units (if any) used the vehicle and in what capacity
Thanks for the heads up to all regarding the suspect "history" that I was quoting.
Fred
