SPECIAL UPDATE – Jeeps in Normandy!This week I decided to do a special update about the Jeeps I saw in Normandy, France during the 2019 75th Anniversary of D-Day. I documented every single Jeep I saw during that time taking over 2,500 photos of Jeeps in five days! This update showcases some of the interesting Jeeps I saw around France and some of the Jeep events that took place. Looking forward to the 80th anniversary when I head back!
BACK FROM FRANCE!It’s been quite the trip the last week to France for the 75th Anniversary of D-Day! There were at least 1,000-2,000 Jeeps in Normandy the days before and after June 6th. It was incredible to see so many Jeeps literally in every road, town, and beach. I took thousands of Jeep photos for reference, and picked up some awesome Jeep related merch! It really made me excited to finish my Jeep!
