Marc found this fascinating photo. The description explains these jeeps were part of ‘Operation Roll Up’, a plan to gather up jeeps left in the Pacific Islands during WWII.

“This is an original press photo. Dept- US Army Service Corps, Credit – ACME & NEAPhoto measures 9 x 7.25inches. Photo is dated 03-18-1952.”

One of our stops will be in Georgetown, CA, to see the Jeep Jamboree hometown. I’m not quite sure if we’ll see much at all, but we’ll be close enough that I gotta go.

Here’s a Truck Trend article that includes a variety of vintage Jamboree jeeping photos. Most appear to be downloadable in high resolution, too.
