The annual “Delaware Goes to War- Victory In Europe” reenactment took place at Fort Miles in Delaware last weekend. Joe shared these photos taken by Bill Goodwin. Thanks! (I think this is a good start to “Front-end Friday”)

Moos Willys’ Drive from Redmond to Kent

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

Today, a gentleman name “Moos” from the Netherlands will be flying into Redmond, Oregon, to purchase to a Willys Truck and drive it to Kent, Washington. From there, the track will get shipped to the Netherlands, where he’ll prepare it for a trip from the Netherlands down to Dakar (Senegal) in Africa.

Hopefully, everything will go smoothly on his drive today. Moos has my number in case he has a problem along his route. If he does have a problem, I may be phoning folks along his route to serif you can help. I will be around Renton for part of the day, but then I will be heading to Bellingham to deliver some jeep tires and enjoy some dinner with Wade Smith.

I suggested this route to avoid some of the Friday traffic, but he still must drive north up Interstate-5.

And here’s the truck. If you drive by Moos, give him a wave!
