In June of 1944 all RSO were advised to drive only with completely opened tarpaulin when carrying passengers on the load platform. Can you explain why?

 
When Fritz farts after eating a months worth of beans, no one will die?

So there would be more room with the guys sitting on the side boards...so other supplies and ammo could be stored on board.
 
the noise level
the heat inside kept the air cooled engine from operating at safe temps
to scan the skies for enemy paratroopers
High center of gravity made dangerous to not be able to exit quickly
 
These soldiers have been in combat for 4 years so they smelled really bad and the cheese from the ration gave Hans a smelly fart
 
There were repeatedly intoxications with fumes because of the slow speed of the RSO especially when tailwind occurred.

Nelson1812 wins his first quiz point. Congrats!

(I guess that Bootie will not raise an objection?)

Look over how other quiz's were put forth and adapt yours to it or come up with a new type, let your mind run wild. LOL ;)
