Kuno, I didn't think of that. I common thing to reduce glare in the desert apparently was to paint over the windows and throw sand over the wet paint, then wipe a small vision slot. But it could well be this huge sun visor had the same purpose - also see the Dodge D8A/T212 with a sun visor.

And before anyone suggest it: the CMP cab 13' windows were not slanted to prevent recognition from the air(!)
