From 1946 Bantam Advertising to Dealers:
"For five years American Bantam was exclusively on War Work. The first Army Jeep was designed and built at American Bantam. This is considered one of the outstanding contributions to World War II.
"Our output of Jeeps, Axles, Ammunition Units, Airplane Parts, Trailers, etc., has run into a figure of over two million dollars a month. Over one hundred thousand Trailers were delivered to the Army during the last three years.
"The All-Purpose Utility (trailer) is the peace-time counterpart to our light Amphibious Trailer, which has been used in every part of the world where the Allied Armies have operated. It is of the same sturdy construction, revamped to meet peacetime needs."
