What an awesome landing photo! Great use of chain on the sand.

Here is a few inspection photos with a Willys and Dodge Power Wagon. Does anyone have more information? Via G503.com

Ok, Dodge Power Wagon lovers, here is an awesome vintage color photo for you!

Can anyone tell us about this photo? It is tagged “Chevy Bomb Trucknn3”

We do a a lot of articles on Off Road Action about military vehicles. While we oooh and aaah over the photos, we tend to think little about the soldiers. For a reason, we do not put very graphic photos on this website. I know that we do not thank the soldiers often enough here and it is something that we would like to change. They put their lives on the line for our freedom. While you may or may not agree with modern military practices, you do have to admit that these brave men and women deserve recognition for their courage and sense of pride for their country. As one soldier said, ” If you do not stand behind our military, feel free to stand in front of them. ”

Last week, we featured some vintage black and white photos of Willys Jeeps in WW2 from the Canadian Archives. This week we bring you some Willys Jeeps that were used as ambulances. Enjoy!

Dave from Ewillys.com recently came across a goldmine of vintage army photos from the Canadian military. The photos are from the National Archives Of Canada website. I found the photos interesting for a number of reasons. First of all, I am Canadian and love Canadian history. Secondly, the photos have the names of people and location of the photos where possible, along with the month and year. For example, the photo above was tagged “Troopers of the Three Rivers Regiment in a jeep, England, 22 July 1942.”

Throughout the next few weeks, we will be featuring a number of the photos. You can bet I will be looking for photos of my grandparents!

How about this Canada based United Nations Jeep M38A1? Via Vintage Military Trucks.com

A few weeks ago, we featured the prototype 1969 Jeep XJ001 4×4 sports car. Today we have another Jeep prototype, but we are going back to the companies army roots. Being that the Bobcat was designed to be an air drop vehicle, it weighed only 1475lbs. The tiny Willys Jeep shared a lot of parts with the M-38 and M38-A1, although the frame was from the MB tooling. Sadly, the Willys Jeep Bobcat never made the production line. However, we are still looking for more information about it. Does know more?
