I have not a "what" question, but rather a "why". I am new to Victory Models and have read through this thread thoroughly. I may have missed the answer but here goes:

One of my Victories appears to be a typical Lend Lease with US Property and the GHD inspector's mark. As a Lend Lease item, it was expected or hoped that the revolver would eventually be returned to the United States. So I completely understand that mark. But if the revolver were going to the Allies then why did a US Army inspector need to affix his stamp as well?

Thanks in advance for answering such a basic question.

I have been lurking here off and on for years but only recently joined. Thanks also for such a great resource.
