Steve shared this photo that includes some specific information about the jeep and its occupants. I’m wondering if these photos are related to the Brenner Pass counter intelligence operation described in this book? I’ve included more photos from Lt. Kradeskis below this one. You can see many more photos here that were taken by Lt. Kradeskis.

“Original WWII Snapshot Photo of COUNTERINTELLIGENCE CORPS JEEP & TRAILER of Lt. Kradeskis at BRENNER PASS between Austria and Italy, 1945. Photo was taken by Lieutenant William (Bill) Kradeskis of the Counterintelligence Corps (CIC). Lt. Kradeskis was variously assigned to the 6th Armored Division, 101st Airborne Division, and 7th Army in France, Belgium, Germany, and Austria. He was from Marblehead, Massachusetts, and married (to Bee) on 18 December 1943 just before shipping out for the ETO and did not get his honeymoon until after the war starting 6 January 1946. See the other photos I have listed from this officer. Search for “CIC” in the titles of my listings.”
There are more photos that include jeeps. Lt. Kradeskis seems to have documented a lot of his travels during WWII.

Steve spotted this unusual NOS transfercase.
https://philadelphia.craigslist.org/pts/d/wynnewood-us-military-nos-m38-dana-18/7255426110.html
“NOS US Military Dana 18 Transfer Case for a M38 Jeep in its Original Shipping Container. This is a Museum Quality M38 Dana Transfer Case.
This was packaged in 01/12/1959.
Note: This was advertised as a Dana 18 for an M38A1 but I have just been informed that it is an NOS Dana 18 for an M38 Military Jeep. This can be installed in an M38A1 if you swap out the Emergency Brake with an M38A1 Emergency Brake.”
UPDATE: Still Available. The rear of this might be a CJ-5.
(01/01/2021) I’m not sure if there’s much ’43 left here, except the windshield.
