Description
The Willys MB jeep, also made as the virtually identical Ford GPW, is a small, general-purpose four-wheel drive all-terrain vehicle, used by the Allies in World War II, produced in large numbers by the United States from 1941 through 1945.
The Willys (and Ford) jeeps were considered by many Americans, including General, and later President Eisenhower, General George Marshall, and Pulitzer Prize winning war journalist Ernie Pyle, to be one of the important means by which World War II was won. The small jeep acquired a certain iconic status due to its good construction and performance, wide availability, and positive media.
