WILLY'S JEEP



The Third and Fourth Photos are taken at Bedford, Nth Borneo, with our 9th Division, near the end of the War in Pacific.
Many of these Soldiers were Rats of Tobruk or later Reinforcements.

What a vehicle they were – helped enormously to win the War, everywhere they were used.
Great to drive also – go anywhere.
The versatile Willys Jeep

Interesting stuff........

At the end of WWII, there were hundreds of acres of closely parked jeeps in Britain.
Since they would depress the auto industry if sold, they were all bulldozed into the sea.
Trucks too. Thousands and thousands of them.

Bullet holes in the windshield of this Jeep are a testament to the faithful service of the Medics of the 84th Division as they evacuate wounded soldiers in their makeshift Jeep ambulance.
