That would have to be what he is there for. From where the driver sits he wouldn't be able to see a damned thing. What an arrangement!
It's been said that a camel is a horse designed by a committee. This device obviously got the same treatment. Probably the only one built.
As regards the airborne CCKWs, there is an almost intact example in the Lake Salvage yard in Mildura, Victoria. The cargo body has been replaced with a turn table (fifth wheel) but it wears its original paint job and some of its markings. It still has the word AIRBORNE stencilled on the doors.
