Here's just a couple of photos that actually have Jeeps in them.
These are after they crossed the Werra river
There's another 140 pic's in the album. I didn't want to just drop em in here since most of them are "non-Jeep" related.
Follows the 661st TD Battalion across Europe till the end of the war.
Here's a link to the album though http://www.surfacezero.com/g503/showgal ... p?cat=3077

Re: 777th Tank Battalion, 661st TD
Nice pictures,
I'm mid way through my 44MB restoration want to mark mine up with 644th TD markings as that unit was stationed in my home town just before D day.
Here is a couple of sites may be of interest to some (not many jeep pictures though)
http://www.644td.net/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
http://tankdestroyer.net" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Frank Bruegger I'd be interested in seeing photos of your jeep and the markings email me if possible s.i.mcilwaine@btinternet.com
