Opa's First Post WWII Ride in a Jeep

Michael shared this Jalopnik story of a 79 year old German man's ride in a jeep last year, thanks in part to Christian's Willys Am Tegernsee group. It was the first time he'd been in a jeep since 1945. Read the whole story here:

Thanks for posting this story Dave. I have read it before, but I always enjoy it. As you know this was at CeePee's annual reunion. There is always a lot of really well maintained Jeeps at this gathering in my favorite part of Germany.

Thanks Bob. CeePee has invited me to attend, so I hope to take him up on the offer at some point!
