In June 1940 the American army asked for a vehicle that could „go-anywhere“. The answer was the four-wheel drive Willys MB and the Ford GPW, both models referred to as ‚Jeeps‘. 630,000 jeeps were produced by the end of the war.

Developed for reconnaissance and liaison duties, the jeep was well suited to a variety of roles and was even used in airborne landings.

After the experience of gas in World War I, the Americans added a Chemical Corps into the army armed with 4.2″ mortars to fire poisonous gas. The near-total absence of chemical on the battlefield in World War II led to a rapid reorganisation of these units, which became heavy mortar sections.

Oh, schön, dass es auch den Heavy Mortar der US Amerikaner gibt. Die Heavy Mortar wurden von der US Army eigentlich als Gaswerfer (sog. Chem Mortar) aufgestellt und waren daher Teil des des Chemical Corps der US Army. Durch das nahezu komplette Fehlen von Giftgas an den Fronten des 2. Weltkrieges wurden sie jedoch dann zu schweren Mörsern umgerüstet. 🙂
