                        DODGE WC 56 / WC 57

The WC-56 was wider and much shorter than the ​¹⁄₂-ton command cars, giving it squat proportions.

The WC-56 Truck, Command Reconnaissance, 3/4 ton, 4×4 w/o Winch Dodge (G502) was a command and reconnaissance vehicle akin to a large Willys Jeep. It did not prove popular as it was heavier and not as maneuverable as the Jeep, and its distinctive profile made it a target. The soft-top included side-curtains, for better weather shielding. 21,156 built.
