IMG_20181109_060445-1604x893.jpg Andrew It's a Brockway B666, the pontoon-carrying version of the 6-ton White 666 cargo truck. A rare truck now, but Dinky Toys made a nice toy version.

Apache 5. Apache 6.Untitled 7. Untitled I have a few more but they are more or less the same photos but with different guys posing in them.

notinfringed Posted October 13, 2019 Share #115 Posted October 13, 2019 Here are a few pictures from an album I recently acquired. I usually don't buy albums that aren't associated with Alaska in some way, but there were way too many great pictures in the album to pass it up. The owner was apparently with a pre-war Cavalry unit for stateside training. Bantam Jeep and a slat-grill T11E1 Marmon Harrington Real Picture Post Card Dodge VC command car An interesting carrying rack for a dispatch bike A few of the many scout car photos.

mikie Posted July 24, 2023 Share #118 Posted July 24, 2023 It’s hard to see the vehicles in these pictures but maybe the experts here can see something of interest. The first one is my Dad at Fort McClellan, AL in 1940-41. I tried to close up in on the trucks as best I could. The second picture he took on Okinawa during the fighting there. He was in an anti-tank company of the 27th Infantry Division. There is something not quite visible towing the cannon. And there is a front fender of a jeep or something on the right. mikie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWS Posted February 25 Share #123 Posted February 25 Not just another Jeep picture, but a picture of my Dad in a jeep at Fort Bliss in late '42 or early '43. The second photo was taken at the same time/location but the driver is unknown. Note the name "Taffy" on the rear quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi GWS, Wow what a fabulous photo, your father in one of the earliest Jeep models a Bantam BRC ( Bantam Reconnaissance Car ) possibly built around June 1941, these are a very rare find today and very-very few survived to become collectors pieces. Thank you for sharing with us, I want to keep a copy of your father and the Bantam. regards lewis. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWS Posted February 26 Share #125 Posted February 26 Thanks for the kind words General! I didn't really know what make/model Jeep it was so I really appreciate your information on it. He would have been 18 or 19 years old at that time. Does the hand painted "B C car" on it mean anything to you? He was in a tank destroyer unit at that time. Any idea on the other Jeep? Thank you so much. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
