Default Re: Model A Fords in the Military

Thre were VERY FEW Model A's "Tween the wars", particularly since the Army was cutting back big time in the Model A Period, using surplus WW1 vehicles, and the horse was still king.
You might see General Irwin Rommel reviewing his North African troops in a German made 400A looking Ford, with the top off, though. (Henry had a plant in Germany)

You can see movies of hundreds of AA's crossing the frozen lake to relieve Leningrad during the Nazi siege, though they were really ZZ GAZ trucks almost identical to the AA, but with Model B engines. The Soviets continued to manufacture GAZ "Jeeps" through WW2, and many were seen by Gi's in Korea, during the Korean war, belonging to NKPR and Chinese troops, with their Model B (Z) GAZ engines.
