Aug 1948 Jeep Stand-Off at Potsdamer Platz

An August 23, 1948, article in the Tampa Times shared the news of an American and Soviet jeep standoff in Potsdamer Platz as tensions ran high between the East and West. I’d say tensions were high!

Photo of M-606(?) with Extender and Little Girl

• CATEGORIES: Features, International, Old Images This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Steve spotted this photo taken on September 10, 1968, in Encarnacion, Paraguay. Given the military tank, I was thinking this might be a M-606. However, this does have a PTO bar. Though it has “WILLYS” badges on the tailgate and hood, it appears these are actually a separate plate that’s been added. The rear seat looks like some kind of sideways seat.
