Enlarge photo 1 These photos are of a ceremony to mark the 40000th dodge delivered to the Army that took place in Ft Wayne, Ind.  I lost my notes on when this took place but I think it was late in 1941.  It looks like the 40000th vehicle was a command car. Based on the hood numbers (W-222221-W-222245) of the vehicles behind the first row the hood number for the command car (40000th vehicle) would be W-222221.  Wonder  what happen to it. See next mag photo.
