Here's another dumb question then... were T-16s issued W/D numbers at the factory as were our Universals? On our carriers, the CTXXXXXX number was stamped into the top of the armour plate in front of the driver's position - permanently assigned from the time of manufacture onwards. The same with T-16s, or were those numbers assigned on receipt at the depot level, as per our trucks?

Just curious...
