Book. WW2 Signal Corps history

[Mike Cecil]

That shelter type was adapted for much wider use than just signals/signals repair. Anything that needed a clean and, when air conditioned, temperature controlled environment for RAEME to undertake repairs used this type of shelter. These shelters were adapted for optical instrument repairs such as survey instruments, gun sights, periscopes, artillery electronic equipment such as FACE as well as signals equipment repair. Also used for signalling equipment operation as heavy radio stations.

There are a few images of them on Inters serving in SVN in my book Mud & Dust, and a good 3/4 front image (provided by me) in David Doyle's book on the Studebaker US-6.
