CEMSCO Trailers

Unread post by 1SGCAV77 » April 26th, 2020, 1:53 pm

Have been spending my time searching the web about stuff lately. Recently I found some Interesting information on CEMSCO trailers. I found an advertisement on page 28 of “The SEA BEE” volume 1 number 12 dated 1964. Found this on history.navy.mil
Of course CEMSCO is an acronym for lots more. The following picture describes the meaning for the letters. One thing for sure the data plate would have been huge had the company spelled everything out.
