I have a WWII trailer, which has a dataplate with the inscription "M24
ammunition trailer". The trailer
seems to be 100% identical to a standard 1 ton, 2 wheel trailer of the Ben
Hur type.
So what makes this trailer an ammunition trailer? Was there any special
equipment, straps, brackets, etc. installed on this trailer? What kind of
units would use this trailer, and what vehicle would pull it?
