That worked for awhile of course LOL. But when retreating far away from the countries that originally made the parts and ammunition it certainly was more and more of a headache for the troops using them and needing the supplies to keep the weapons going and working. IIRC alot of the foriegn trucks were based on Ford designs so the interchangability of parts were somewhat easier.
