Soldiers!!
Let's meet a brave and strong girl, who was facing the worst working conditions to allow the fight to develop in more favorable environments. We are talking about the Caterpillar D7 Bulldozer, used by several allied countries during WWII, in various configurations.
History:
The Caterpillar D7 is a medium bulldozer manufactured by Caterpillar Inc.. The first D7 appeared in 1938. The D7 dozer was the primary earthmover for construction of survivability positions and antitank ditches. It had to be transported by trailer due to its poor mobility. During WW II crawler tractor / bulldozers were used by Allied military for combat construction in Europe, Asia, in the Pacific, literally all over the world. The crawler tractors had unsurpassed capability to move and tow in the muddy jungles of the Pacific islands which made them especially prized by the Americans SeaBees, Marine Corps and Army units in the Pacific Theater. When equipped with a bulldozer blade, they could level ground for roads and airfields as well as clear debris, construct fortifications and much more.Caterpillar D7 described:
The D7 was a big machine 4.114 mm long and 2.539 mm wide without any attachments), but it was also a phenomenal worker_ Fitted with Cat's own model D-8800, 4 cylinder, 80 horsepower, 13.617 cc liquid cooled diesel engine, it had a maximum drawbar pull over 11.500 kg. With six speeds forward, four in reverse, it could work equally well in either direction. They can be fitted with a LeTourneau-type angledozer on which the blade could be manually adjusted to cut right or left, or to doze straight ahead. The power control unit can be front mounted, but. still relied on cables to raise the blade, A Hyster D7N 15 tons winch can be mounted at the rear, Weighing 14.400 kg, the D7 could tow loads exceeding 11.500 kg. • D7 7M series, manufactured 1940-1944, approx 10,000 produced. D8800 engine, 74 inch track gauge (1.880mm)
• D7A 1T1001 series, manufactured 1943, 138 produced. Armor plated 7M with twin hydraulic cylinders, rear mounted Hyster D7N winch
• D7 3T series, manufactured 1944-1955, over 28,000 produced
• D7 4T series, manufactured 1944-1945
• D7 6T series, manufactured 1945
During WW II, the D7 was one of the bulldozers collectively known as "Tractor, Heavy, M1." Equivalent tractors were produced during WW II by Allis-Chalmers Co. (Model HD10W, G-98) and International Harvester Co. (Model TD18, G-101). About one thousand Caterpillar D7s were also produced by American Car &Foundry under license when WW II military orders exceeded Caterpillar's capacity.
