Kingsman Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Often improvised in the field. Not sure if there was an offical kit. US Army would have been different to USMC, Australian diifferent to British, airborne different again etc........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louiex2 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Das is correct, I haven’t found any reference for an official kit issued for WW2 litter/ambulance Jeeps. The frames were field improvised by the medical corpsmen using whatever they could scrounge up. While the US Army Chief Surgeon did have drawings distributed to help there were many other drawings floating around. Here’s a link with everything you ever want to know about WW2 Army litters- scroll to the bottom or the Jeep litter frames: https://www.med-dept.com/articles/ww2-us-army-litters/ There are dozens of photos of litter Jeeps on the internet than will help.
