I have hesitated to post this pic in this DG, as I would not like to fuel up the flames in the "Guntruck or not guntruck ?" debate but I think that the PSP on the sides bans it from the "Softskin" DG ...


The Deuce and the Jeep belong to US troops going through the French city of Saint-Nizier in September 1944 (pic taken by Jean Villiers, found in "L'Année de la Liberté" )

Frenchy

You could call it a gun truck. It has harden sides using PSP and sand bags. The term Gun Truck came into use during the Nam conflict to describe our trucks or vehicles harden to perform convoy security. But it can apply to any vehicle that is armored up I would say.

LOL :-) Nice pic though. Keep them coming

That jeep is a first for me on the dash board it has. I know it has a radio mounted high on the dash by a bracket, but all the switches and lights that are mounted in the dashboard itself. I never seen an active dashboard like that before.
There is normally only a few standardard gauges and that's all.

Where could you get the information for that kind of set up?
