Stephen Stokes was kind enough to share this photo (via David Watson). It shows Stephen’s father, Fredrick Stokes, during his time in Japan with the US Army. The photo was taken between 1946-1948. If the bumper is accurate, it looks to be a GPW.

    This is my Pops. He turned 18 in March of 1945 and was deployed to Japan later that year as part of the occupation force. Thank you for posting this photo, it has made our Mother’s day, David Stokes.
