Generator id?

Could someone tell me the model of this generator. It's a 56.2kva with a 4 cylinder cummins. Was told it was old military generator but does not have any of the original placards. All it has is the generator and engine data plates. Thanks

All I can tell you is that it is an old one, until the late 1960's the military did not have a standardized generator program, logistic concerns supporting a myriad of different generator models in the field led to the development of the MEP mil std series of generators. Anything built prior to that was procured contract to contract and as a result there may be dozens of some models and thousands of others.

Ok thanks. Yes is a 61 model. Engine runs perfect but generator not putting out. But I found few bad diodes that I'm waiting on new ones to come in and see if it works.
