This is a frontal view of our 1945 Willys MB. The jeep has correct 10th Dragoon markings as seen from 1943-45. The number 54 on the windscreen is what denotes this vehicle as belonging to the regiment. The Huzzar helmet with wings denotes the Polish 1st Armoured Division.

This is a shot of the correct rear markings for a jeep of the regiment. Notice in addition to the division and regimental numbers, there also appears a black PL within white oval. This denotes ownership by the Polish forces. Also of note is the British made "jerry can" on the left, rear of the vehicle. Although these jeeps would originally have been shipped from the factory with the standard U.S. made 5 gallon container, these were often quickly traded out at the first fuel supply depot for whatever was on hand.

This side view offers a good shot of the British designed WS-19 radio set. This set was standard equipment in all British tanks and some armoured vehicles. As our jeep is being used as a head quarters communications vehicle it would be expected for this jeep to have a compatible radio set as well. The WS-19 is comprised from several different components. The most interesting part however is that it is furnished with both an "A" and "B" transceiver side. The "A" side is used for long range HF communications up to 30 miles. The "B" side is for short wave or local communications with an approximate range of 10-15 miles. The operator could use both voice and Morse key operations with this set.

Many local field modifications were made by the regimental and divisional motor pools once the troops landed on the French coast. Machine guns of various calibers were often mounted in make shift arrangements to provide extra firepower for the vehicle occupants. When close to the front lines this HQ jeep is sporting a Bren MkII light machine gun capable of firing approx 560 rounds per minute. A quick spray of lead into the general direction of the enemy may allow this unarmoured vehicle to escape a bad tactical situation.
Note also the rolled burlap cammo net on the front bonnet. This would be deployed atop the vehicle when parked so as to hide it's location from enemy aircraft.

Here is our recently acquired White M3A1 half track. The troopers of the three line infantry squadrons of the regiment were transported in vehicles such as these. This vehicle is currently under cosmetic and mechanical restoration. The overall colour is correct however it does not have appropriate regimental markings. Pictures will be added as the project progresses.
