[Automobile at Komaki Air Base]

Photograph of an automobile at Komaki Air Base, Japan, April 1947. The inscription notes that the vehicle is a converted jeep owned by Captain Staugaard, the motor pool officer.

Inscription on verso: "Converted jeep owned by Capt. Staugaard, Motor Pool Officer. A Jap auto factory did the work for him. They rolled out the metal by hand, after the Capt. gave them the drawings, which he drew up himself. It's really a nice little buggy, and it doesn't even ride like a jeep. Komaki Airdrome. Nagoya, Japan. April 1947."
