At my local tractor show back in September, there was an interesting Cletrac. I never found out what it was, but there was a plate on it that said "Army Air Force" and if I remember right 1943 (the year), along with some other stuff I don't remember. I also found out that it was used as a "crash" tractor (can't think of a better phrase), used to push the big bombers off of the runways when/if they crashed. When the guy drove it in the parade, Boy did it MOVE! It was fast. Can anyone tell me what model this is? There are two more photos of the Cletrac at my Photopoint spot, along with a few more photos from the show. If you can identify any other tractors, go ahead. I'm glad I found something that can combine my study of the old bombers and the old tractors! Thanks, Brandon
