			Carrier track is steel.  If steel isn't heat treated after casting it is as brittle as Cast Iron.  Widmanstatten alpha.... ah.. I didn't forget everything they tought me then   Not 100% true, quite early on in he war, if not just before they switched from Manganese Steel to SG, I had forgotton that.
