Known colloquially as the "Deuce and a Half," the CCKW series was designed to be a versatile and durable vehicle, capable of transporting troops, supplies, and equipment across a variety of terrains. The M37 ring mount allowed for the installation of a .50 caliber machine gun, providing additional defensive capabilities. By 1944, these trucks had become a backbone of the U.S. Army's transport fleet, critical to the success of large-scale operations.On May 1st, 1944, the GMC CCKW 353B was a common sight at Weymouth, England, as the U.S. 1st Infantry Division, famously known as "The Big Red One," prepared for Operation Overlord. The trucks were essential in moving men and materiel to the embarkation points for the impending D-Day invasion. The CCKWs were loaded onto LSTs (Landing Ship, Tank) via ship ramps, highlighting their integral role in the massive logistical effort required for the Normandy landings. The ability of the CCKW to operate efficiently in both rear-echelon and front-line environments made it indispensable during the preparation phase.Following the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, the GMC CCKW 353B continued to prove its worth throughout the European theater. The trucks were key components of the Red Ball Express, a major logistics operation that ensured a steady flow of supplies to front-line units as they pushed through France and into Germany. The CCKW's robust design and adaptability allowed it to traverse difficult terrain and maintain operations under harsh conditions, contributing significantly to the mobility and effectiveness of Allied forces.For model enthusiasts and history buffs, the 1:32 scale model with a 1609 Type cab, M37 ring, and sheet metal cab, offers an impeccably detailed representation of this vital vehicle. With authentic features and precision craftsmanship, this replica captures the essence of the CCKW's crucial role in the preparations for D-Day and its service throughout World War II. It is an excellent addition to any collection, celebrating the legacy of a vehicle that was instrumental in the Allied victory.PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS:We gladly accept paypal.Tracking info is free upon request.SHIPPING INFO:We do combine shipping cost for two or more items purchased.
