The sign was later removed, perhaps by the U.S. Army because of its claim to have built the Alaska Highway nearly a year earlier. The sign was probably photographed many times while still in place and gave the impression to at least one brochure-writer that the entire highway was the work of more than eighty U.S. and Canadian companies. All the U.S. Army did was to run bulldozers between gaps in existing roads and trails and build some temporary bridges. The highway as it exists today as an all-weather artery is wholly the work of civilians, though the U.S. Army paid for it.
