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

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
Just another UK jeep lover
