A little while ago, I noticed something on Facebook. It is a video clip from the 1965 movie, In Harm's Way starring John Wayne and Kirk Douglas.
It shows a Jeep approaching Wayne and George Kennedy. It is supposed to be a South Pacific base during World War II. The Jeep shown did not exist at the time. It is a Willys Jeep M38A1 that was first produced in 1952. I should know, I have one.
It was spotted by the front fenders. I have the movie on DVD, but I never noticed this until today.
Here's a screenshot of the Jeep from the movie:
Here's my 1952 M38A1:
The Jeeps during World War II all (different models) had flat fenders. It is anachronistic for the era.
