Great tractor, George.
The one below is not the same one, is it? Source: http://www.historylink101.com/ww2_na...raft/5659.html Caption: "WAVES at NAS Oakland, CA."

As the photo was taken at a USN base in Oakland, California, it would be unlikely that the tow tractor is a David Brown, anyhow, there are no similarities to a DB that I can see. On a second look I think it is a Ford-Ferguson 9N aircraft tug, check out this website for a good example of an ex-USN one; http://www.ewarbirds.org/vehicles/19...erguson9n.html
