GMC DUKW screenshots

aT sT Walker has posted some screenshots of the GMC DUKW he is making on the BIS forums.

A little bit of background on a somewhat less well known, yet very important, WW2 vehicle:

The DUKW was an amphibious cargo vehicle based on the chassis of the GMC CCKW 2.5 ton 6x6 light-heavy truck. The vehicle was standardized in October of 1942, and remained in production until the end of the war. Ducks were first used by the British 8th Army during the invasion of Sicily. RASC companies attached to 8th Army had 230 DUKWs available to land stores and anti-tank guns.
Later they ferried stores across the Straits of Messina, and participated in the landings at Anzio and Salerno. DUKWs proved very valuable during river crossings in Italy, north-west Europe, and Burma.
