- "A little present for the Boche. We call her Vera. Her twin over there is Lynn."
- — Gerald Ingram, "Night Drop."
Vera is the name given to one of the two jeeps operated by Major Ingram's Special Air Service unit - the other being her sister unit Lynn - in Call of Duty 3. The player, as Sgt. Doyle, gets the opportunity to drive her during the campaign.
Campaign[]
After the Handley Page Halifax carrying the two jeeps is shot down in "Night Drop", Vera is initially lost. However, she is later found behind a barn after an intense firefight around a farmhouse. Sgt. Doyle drives her to the rendezvous point with Cpl. Keith and Pierre LaRoche on the guns.
After finding Marcel and destroying three FlaK 88 anti-aircraft guns, Doyle, Keith, and LaRoche drive in Vera and eventually get stuck in the sights of a Panzer IV, but they are soon saved by Marcel riding in Lynn.
She is driven into a German controlled depot in the level "Fuel Plant", where Vera narrowly avoids being hit by a speeding goods train but crashes into a wall instead. She is replaced by a stolen Horch 1a for the rest of the level, and by Lynn for "Hostage!"
Trivia[]
- When the names of Vera and Lynn are put together, they form Vera Lynn, a famous British wartime singer.
