Howdy Mark,
I could be wrong, but I think there is one of these at the Battle of the
Bulge Museum(?), in or near Bastogne, Belgium. I have the museum info book
around here somewhere, but between all of the machine gun parts, warbird
parts, military vehicle parts, manuals and my sunday to go church suit, I
can't lay my hands on it right now.
Hope this helps.
Pike
