With my vast and profound knowledge of MB 1/4 tons (acquired in one morning), I'd say yes that does look like a Jeep light switch. Check the rating before getting carried away.

This is where an illustrated parts manual and a few more from contemporary USGI vehicles would come in handy. Instead of relying on the ignorance of strangers (ie - me!), the references will show which parts are common across the spectrum. One of the wonders of the US logistics system is how it firmly harnessed as much of the US industrial base as it could, and using command economic measures achieved greatness. Most Americans can't agree on issues; so to work together so successfully is a real marvel.
