Faint Faults
With the caution of a baby-show judge, Correspondent Ernie Pyle radioed from Africa that he has found a couple of faults in the Army's favorite vehicle: the jeep.
"One is the hand brake. It's perfectly useless--won't hold at all. And ... I wish they could somehow fix the jeep so that at certain speeds the singing of those heavy tires wouldn't sound like an approaching airplane.
"Except for those two trivial items the jeep is a divine instrument of wartime locomotion. . . . Good Lord, I don't think we could continue the war without [it]."
