Opening up the 2024 thread................
On the Border Model Facebook page - some upcoming releases

Dave
ps Happy New Year!

The nickname comes from the original manufacturer, Ben-Hur Mfg. Co. from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. Not sure if it was used during the war already, but it’s not inconceivable.

It doesn’t appear to be used in the technical manual — not too surprisingly — to which I might add that only the US Army would publish an 89-page manual for a trailer …
