Dodge Weapons Carrier

[motto (RIP)]

It's only word of mouth but Angus MacDonald, a WW2 Australian Army veteran who went on to become a post war ex government vehicle and parts dealer told me that Dodge WCs were supplied by the Australian Army for use by mortar crews. Angus had spent his time in the army as an infantryman and saw service in the islands (Borneo, Balikpapan?) and knew what he was talking about.
Simon Allen purchased a WC52 off a farm in the Bandianna area only a couple of years ago and it had the star on the bonnet and what seems to be a fairly standard RHD conversion which appears to be the case with most, if not all WCs found in Victoria. This only lends weight to the commercial post war import story but doesn't negate the wartime use of WCs by Australian forces.
