M3 Data Plate
Hi, Have got another Question. I have this M3 Data plate we are using on a Stuart Tank and we were wondering what the D N H stands for? any ideas out there? I do not think it is drive , neutral, high as it is not an auto! Thanks Andrew.

I think it's the initials of the inspector.

Ordnance inspectors
These initials are from Col. D.N. Hauseman, Ordnance chief from Philadelphia Ordnance district from August 1942 to December 1943.

While we're at it, here are some more: M3 Medium, 1942, Ordnance acceptance marking "RZC": 22195410_1468729249872721_8617549038774110844_n.jpg Ram II, 1943, Ordnance acceptance marking "BOH": 13537556_1040894969322820_3609466308085330342_n.jpg M4A3(105)W, 1945, Ordnance acceptance marking "ABQ": 21433042_1452184484860531_6084503411851198115_n.jpg So who were the counterparts of Col. D.N. Hauseman? I guess it is a study on its own.... Thanks, Hanno

Thank you very much Marco!
Indeed “BOH” is stamped on Grizzly data plates, too. 8161E60F-2D84-49C4-B6D4-A512F976AA98.jpeg

M3 Plate
Had a great find the other day, this original Drive / Neutral and High (DNH) plate turned up the other day from a random auction, after at least 40 years missing from the Tank that just happens to be sitting in my wkshop! Exact same serial number, cheers Andrew.
