REFERENCES On 8 June 1953, the East China Military Area Command ordered its military districts to readjust their motorized transportation troop units in order to strengthen military transportation. The main points of the order were as follows: a. Military districts which had already formed motor car battalions should carefully inspect the cars they possessed and replace those which were obsolete or damaged too badly. b. Military districts which had not yet formed motor car battalions whould form them within three months. c. Each motor car battalion would have 126 cars. In special cases this number might be reduced, but never to less than 105 cars. d. Cars required by the military districts for forming motor car battalions and for replacements would be alloted in a uniform manner by the Supply and Service Command of the East China Military Area. e. When the motor car battalions were formed, all drivers were to be concentrated for political indoctrination and car maintenance training.
