I guess we must have missed something here....
If you have some DOCUMENTATION that can prove that a Crescent Tool Co. 11" Adj. wrench was purchased by the gov't for replacements in the ORD or QMC it would be nice to see it....until then, I would like to see a picture of a Crrescent Tool Co. 11" Adj. (WO A-377) wrench you think is correct.

11" adjustable

One year ago I wrote: Al, I agreed with you and really the unpolite reference to baloney is not worth of any comment.
I have not changed my mind.
Besides,anyone carefully reading this thread can easily assess where the baloney came from.
Crescent was a tools supplier to the Government: our maitre charcutier at first objected to such an idea,and once he has been informed of Government contracts he now wants specific 11" adjustable contracts.
He is ready to accept Barcalo pliers as correct for GPW, because Barcalo was a Ford supplier and there are Barcalo engineer wrenches in the Bizal kit, even in lack of a specific pliers contract.
