Is the first time that I and many see this mark.
Cheers.

Reconditioned Vehicles:
By Mid 43 vehicles that had been used for training purposes in the United States were beginning to show their hard use.With most of the new production being sent overseas it was decided to start a program of rebuilding.Initially done by the military depots,the program was later expanded to include some civilian firms.Vehicles were disassembled,worn parts replaced and generally updated.In this activity originality was of no concern so that major units were interchanged resulting in GPW bodies on MB frames,Mb engines in GPW s.Vehicles that have been through this program usually have a plate on the dash indicating what firm or depot rebuilt that vehicle.
