According to TM 9-2800 (1 September 1943) War Department tractor / bulldozers were standardized under three general nomenclature groupings, with several commercially available models in each group, as follows:


Tractor, Light
Caterpillar Tractor Co. Model D4 (G-151)
International Harvester Model TD9 (G-99)

Tractor, Medium, M1
Allis-Chalmers Co. Model HD7W (G-125)
Caterpillar Tractor Co. Model D6 (G-69)
Cleveland Tractor Co.
International Harvester Co. Model TD14 (G-132)

Tractor, Heavy, M1
Allis-Chalmers Co. Model HD10W (G-98)
Caterpillar Tractor Co. Model D7 (G-126)
International Harvester Co. Model TD18 (G-101)

While other tractors were procured during WW II, those listed were the most common.


CHIMO! Derek.
