More captured Kubelwagens, this time by the Americans.

The first photo is my favorite, because it shows a photo taken by a GI, who identified the car as a "German Jeep,"
and the "1st VW." Note the driver, who is mockingly wearing a German helmet and giving the Nazi salute.

I assume that is the Po River Valley in Northern Italy, not the Poe Valley in Pennsylvania?
