Below is a clipping from TM-10-1287 (October 18, 1941). Indian Motorcycle Model 741-B

Thanks Wayne....exactly what I was looking for. Had a look on ebay, and the prices seem to vary. Kind of neat to have them NOS in the box....my only fear is if I keep them I will end up with an Indian motorcycle.

I'll drag in a couple more trinkets from the last trip to Westbourne.

Shame! It all started with a wrench ...

It has started enough times by just having the manual. I can't explain why.....it just does.

Found the bill-hook (or as the army calls it, the hook, bill) in the 25 pdr manual. Sure enough, it goes in the ammunition limbers.

I remember Jim showing me those machetes years ago. They would not fit in the standard CMP Machete sheaths he had and he could never figure out what they were for. Came as part of a huge lot of tools he had purchased, many of which had been deliberately rendered unserviceable before they were surplussed out, which p***d him right off!

Well, since you found it in the manual, and the manual does stipulate storage of same in the limber....
my guess is a limber is on the wish list to go with the 25 pounders?

I think that goes without saying.
