Default Re: Model A Fords in the Military

This ios my last post on thjis subject! Henry Ford and his feelings about Nazis, Gemans, Jews and Communists is a minefield and I have huge feet. Yes, Thank you, for posting this. I didn't know that HF built ambulances in WW1. What else would a pacifist produce. His Chartering of the "Peace Ship" and going to Sweden speaks volumes, to me anyway! When he had the manufacturing capacity to build and supply a huge amount of other Materiel' at a good profit. The ambulances were not weapons and the Eagle Boats were wooden and probably only projected to last 5 or 10 years. They were built for the English Channel and would probably not perform well elsewhere.
