This 1:8 scale diecast
model is a detailed replica of the Willys MB Jeep with an M2
machine gun, a 1⁄4-ton cargo trailer, and a 37mm anti-tank gun.
The Willys MB Jeep played a vital role in the
fate of World War II. On
June 6, 1944, this Jeep - along with thousands of men and vehicles from the 1st
Infantry Division - landed on Omaha Beach, Normandy, on D-Day Day taking part in continuous
offensives across France, eventually reaching the German border before taking
part in the Battle of the Bulge.
She helped set up the
Remagen bridgehead, and also participated in operations in the Rhine and Ruhr, and was also involved in some of the
U.S. Army’s
most important campaigns during World War II.
