World War II veterans can now buy up to 10 quonset huts each at the War Assets Administration's site sale at Port Hueneme naval base near Oxnard, John F. Taggart, regional sales chief, has announced.
Numerous requests for quantity purchases of these popular corrugated iron structures for agricultural and industrial use are responsible for the increased allotments, Taggart said.
