Gordon, here's a pre-war (at least for the American's) picture of a GMC Field Artillery prime mover that is identified in the text as a 2 1/4 ton (mistake?). Not being an expert in this area, I don't know if the GMC badging was rare during the war or not, or if it was a case of changed priorities after Dec. 7, 1941 after which large contracts were let and Chevrolet took over?
