LOL, touche... How about a M15A1 special with 40mm bofors deployed with the 209th AAA AW Bn in the Pacific?



Non-standard equipment improvised in the field was sometimes employed by isolated U.S. Army AAA units. If the halftrack pictured at the left looks like a normal M15, don't be fooled. That is really a 40mm Bofors in the bucket. A group of 40mm halftracks was in service with the 209th AAA AW Bn in the Pacific. These special tracks were modified in Australia and used by that organization with positive results.
