WW2 1945 PHOTO LOADING RAAF TRUCK INVASION OF TARAKAN
************************************************** *
DESCRIPTION:

We offer for your consideration an original WW2 1945 photo of the loading of an RAAF truck into a landing craft ready for transportation from Morotai Island for the invasion of Tarakan, Borneo. Note that the truck is carrying a heavy grader for the making of an airstrip for RAAF planes. The truck weighs 23 tons. The Australian invasion of North Borneo was as much a political exercise as it was a military one:

The decision by the Allies to invade Borneo in 1945 was for the most part political. It had only marginal strategic value. General Douglas MacArthur, Commander-in-Chief of Allied forces in the South-West Pacific Area, planned the operation partly to alleviate concerns of the Australian government that its forces were being relegated to operational backwaters, as New Guinea had become. MacArthur had largely left Australian forces out of the most significant operation of this stage of the war – the liberation of the Philippines – with only some warships and a few air force units taking part. The invasion of Borneo was intended to make Australian forces more visible again in pressing home the war against Japan.

I have to admit I am related to the driver handbook!

If you look at my other items you'll see I've listed a Ford Blitz/Carrier/other Ford truck gearbox input shaft and also a 3rd/4th gear, both new old stock. I have some output shafts and first/second gears too.

Speaking of the seller's other items, didn't we see a very similar set of Bedfrod brake linings in Kieth Webb's Parts ID Puzzle thread recently?

Keith Webb 04-11-10 21:38

Bedfrod
 
Hi Grant
No, that must have been the other Keith Webb who spells his name "Kieth". :p :doh::blink:
And yes, the other items are mine - my ebay name is gzk439. I'll be listing many other interesting goodies in coming months.

I reckon you would be better off seeing if you could get something cheaper in Australia, or better still, just talk to Salesman Bob as he sells restored ones.

Hey Ryan,

Bob is already working on my instruments.

The post was a FYI for anyone else that doesn't have a salesmanbob around, to rely on.

Can someone tell me what sort of trailer this is and from which era?
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/army-trailer-...item27b7015302

Richard Coutts-Smith 06-12-10 23:56

Ryan
One ton Trailer, Australian because of the square gaurds, the Pommy ones had round gaurds. As towed by (amonst other things) the Humber One Ton in Aussy Service. They are heavy bloody things, but at least they have a tailgate and are generally much cheaper than a Jeep or Land Rover trailer. So 1950's onwards?
Rich.

Ryan 07-12-10 01:49

trailer
 
Thanks Rich. It would look good behind a Blitz too I reckon.

Jeff Gordon 07-12-10 02:38

I hate it when it is a pick up only and for location they put Australia. Australia is a big place knuckle head.
