"Indiana" Truck, 2-1/2 ton, 1918:
During World War I, the Quartermaster Corps purchased trucks from a variety of manufacturers. Five hundred of these were bought from the Indiana Truck Corporation of Marion, Indiana. Designed to haul men and supplies, the Indiana Trucks, called along with others "Liberty Trucks," saw service in France and the United States. Over 40,000 trucks of all types were shipped to France during the War. This particular specimen is the only operational Indiana Truck known to remain. |
