Looks American. Says "Police" instead of "Polizei" and has a white star. |

Probably set for US-Military in West-Berlin. But then the Bundeswehr-soldiers and the Bundeswehr-car (Y-plate) is wrong: there was no West-German military in West-Berlin, not at all. P.S. And never used the Bundeswehr a phonebox as guard house |

It seems to be a Jeep M38A1, but the headights and the indicators have been modified. Link to "blog.kaiserwillys.com" |

CJ5 made to look military. The identifying feature is the front spring mount. The M38A1 pivots in the front and has a shackle in the rear. The CJ (except early first year 1955) has the shackle in the front as pictured here and the pivot in the rear. |

.....and if it were a 'real' US Army Military Police Jeep of that era,it would be an M151-A1 or M151-A2,the 'Blackout' lights on it's fenders would be different,the white stripe that says "Military Police" would be wider/lettering bigger,and that antenna you can barely see would be much more visable,plus many times it's tied over forward....I'm not going to mention the pole mounted rotator,because that might just be 'invisible' due to the angle of the shot?? Ingo is also correct about that phonebooth turned guardshack.....Real ones are big enough for 2-3 sentries,and most are in the middle of the road,with barricades? |
