Wow... this is a first! "Nose Art" on a WW2 Jeep!


I've never seen that before!

The canvas flap that protects the passenger from mud and muck that flies up from front tire splashes, is something I don't remember seeing before also, but anyway, this photo was colored in, and the artist can't figure out the word under the pin up art. Any ideas?

Some people are trying to get to the bottom of this, and figure out the name under the pinup http://fighters.forumactif.com/t80935-nom-d-une-jeep-votre-avis

The answer is Winnie, it's a Varga Girl pin up in Life Magazine April 1944
