And if you got all the major suppliers to all the companies, you would need a forest of plywood and a supertanker of paint!

If you're looking for logos, check out aths.org
They may have logos you could copy. Many of the companies are or were obscure, so it may be hard to find those logos. Also, the logos change over time, so a logo from WWII might look quite different from their modern logo. Corporate web sites might show how the logo used to look. Happy Hunting!

Didn't Grandpa from Walton's mountain help the war effort by making military jeeps from old rum runners? No wait; I stand corrected, he sawed lumber for troop seats.

Parade line up pic..
After a quick "15 foot" paint job and mounting of 'manufacturer Logo's signs' - here is the line up pic. Parade was fun - loads of candies thrown.
Was joined by Sherman (M38 + trailer), Ted (Dodge pickup M??), jatonka (bobbed 5 ton), dougco1 (M1009 + M101) and Lorna (Jeep with "HUMVEE" body kit).

Found this old thread. Just occurred to me that Oliver tractor also makes this list. My latest Cletrac M2 Medium High Speed tractor was built toward the end of the production run by Oliver after they took over Cletrac.

Most of the major tractor manufacturers built some sort of military equipment. I know Allis Chalmers made some armor and International Harvester made some stuff too.
The truth is, there aren't many major US manufacturers that haven't made some sort of military equipment at some point. Especially during WWII.
