I purchased the first season of the Rat Patrol on DVD and while watching I noticed the jeep that the American Sgt rides in is an M-38. The other jeep is a CJ2A...
Both have had WWII Front grills put on them to make them look correct, but the fuel filler on the driver's side gives them away...
Anyone else notice this ...?

I was watching Patton the other day & apparently they had a single MB & a CJ2A they used throughout the movie. Battle of the Bulge is the same, with a M38 serving major duty, although you see MBs running around in big scenes.

Yes, they are not correct, BUT!!!!!!!! the series made me buy my first Jeep when I was 13. For that, I thank them. I've been with a Jeep of some sort since and expect to die with one. I just need one!!!!
