Bernard Montgomery, Sicily, 1943Limited Edition 1:72 Scale Length WidthWillys Jeep 1.75" 0.75" In July 1943, General Bernard Montgomery, commander of the British Eighth Army, played a key role in the Allied invasion of Sicily, codenamed Operation Husky. Montgomery's forces landed on the southeast coast of Sicily, alongside American troops under General George S. Patton. His objective was to advance northward to capture the key city of Messina. Despite tough resistance from German and Italian forces and challenging terrain, Montgomery's meticulous planning and leadership helped secure important victories. The Sicily campaign marked a significant step in the Allied push into mainland Italy, weakening Axis control in the Mediterranean during World War II. Willys Jeep Designed to meet a US Department of War requirement for a light, cross-country reconnaissance vehicle, the Willys MB Army Jeep was manufactured between 1941 and 1945. The Willys Jeep was the original version of what would later become one of the most iconic vehicles in American history, evolving into a popular civilian vehicle that is still being produced today. The Willys Jeep was a compact, four-wheel drive vehicle that rapidly became one of the most prolific vehicles of WWII. More than 640,000 standardized versions were produced, with 8,690 other versions built over a period of four years. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
