While going through all my docs from the National Archives on my dad's unit, I have found numerous references to the great little weasel, including the 540th creating racks for the weasels during river crossings.

Hey engineers, etc.! If you used weasels, can you tell us how and when you used them? It would be interesting to hear the practical application of this vehicle. Thank you in advance for elaborating.

There are a few weasels being used around here by the radio and tv stations to reach their towers in the winter.Several companies used them in the early seventies fo surveying in wyoming and the west.
