Willys Jeep, 52nd Street and Madison Avenue


I had to go to work on Veteran's Day, which is of course an unspeakable chore, but on the way I saw a full NYPD pipe band playing in Grand Central Terminal, and afterwards spotted this fantastic convoy of WWII era vehicles. Clearly they'd been participating in the parade over on Fifth and had turned off the route. Once the halftrack at right turned onto Madison, the remaining five or six jeeps broke with it and drove in the traffic like normal cars. That is, if normal cars used a hand cranked siren instead of a horn.
