Tim,

I think the generators were made in 1950's.......and the trailers had postwar army registrations that I recall, starting with the letter "B", so 1950's again. Check out your trailer for any ID plates.

According to the manual there was one contract issued for these trailers during the war and resumably more post-war.

As Richard says check the data plate for information.
The generator like on all the survivors is post-war.
