IHC Halftrack Ambulances

[Don Dingwall]

Andrew:
M14's had no rear door originally.
One of the reasons they weren't very popular when first issued.

Go to Servicepub.com to get the Weapons of War book on the HT in Cdn. service. Required reading frankly for anyone interested in them in our usage.

Rob:
Should be easy to fab the racks anyway. Nothing complicated about it!

The Regimental MO's halftrack (International M14 ambulance) is in the background. Signals Officer, Lieut. Don Simpson's wartime diary mentions that he and Dr. MacLeod would sometimes use the back of the halftrack as sleeping quarters.
