I have the original manual for the test manual here. One of the prototype mites was delivered to Camp Lejeune, a Marine sergeant was given the task of just driving it every day and reporting on the handling of the new jeep. He gave the manual to my friend, who gave it to me.

I'm guessing Aberdeen for the testing site; it's got that coastal plain look of the area.

Wonder how the development of the Jeep mixed with this; anybody know?
