Oshkosh trucks in WWII

[Trucker1973]

I collect facts about delivery Oshkosh trucks to US Army, Air Corps and Navy during WWII. Somebody have information about this? All my present knowledge only from book of Crismon "US Military Wheeled Vehicles".

These trucks was ordered in WWII period or after 1945?

Hi,
Maybe this would of interest:

It appears to be a Oskosh truck, with a Garwood crane, not like the C2 wrecker, but more as a Ward Lafrance wrecker..
