Dust-masked convoy crews, work I
Ing In relays on a round the clock
schedule, have been high-balling
their trucks over the historic route
loaded down with food, fuel and
other much needed supplies. They
travel In groups of ten or more,
driving in close formation, and it
takes hair trigger concentration
and expert driving know-how on
the part of the men behind the
wheels Except for brief stops at
relay stations, spaced approximate
ly every one hundred miles, the
trip is non-stop. Relay stops are
made only to gas up. check the
trucks mechanically, and to change
exhausted drivers. These Army
convoy crews would willingly wag
er six months pay theirs is one of
the toughest jobs in the Army to
day But they're just as unwilling
to give up their back breaking
grind for assignments elsewhere.
After hours on the road, eyes
focussed not on the magnificent
scenery which one day will make
the Alaska Highway one of the
tourist wonders of the world, but
on the tail of the truck right in
front, all the boys ask for is a six
hour catnap in their ever present
sleeping bags to refresh themselves
for the return trip. They're back-
Lake and Whitehorse, where two
and three lane roadway permits
comfortable travel and a 40 mph
speed can be achieved.
There are a few sections, how
ever. which still provide tough go
ing and repair and construction
crews are working feverishly to
improve this roadbed. Despite the
many handicaps, some of the trucks
"highball" the 1000 mile stretch
from Dawson Creek to Whitehorse
in about 72 hours time, and boy.
that’s rolling.
Only first ^ate mechanical skill
in maintaining the rolling stock at
a peak of efficiency makes this'tre
mendous transport job possible.
The trucks used on the Highway
were the first in this war to be
built to Government specifications.
A directive for a "pilot” production
model was released in December.
1940 and production models began
rolling off the converted passenger
car line at the Studebaker plant
at South Bend, Ind., a few months
later. Trucks are four speed and
have a conventionally mounted six
cylinder engine with a multiple
drive feature included to assure
positive driving force regardless of
the unevenness of the terrain.
