Just when I thought I'd seen it all..... in our city's Christmas parade today, there was a 1938 BMW R73 with sidecar and an MG15. It was done up in gray paint with WH license placards front and rear. I think there was a Christmas wreath on the front of the side car. What a hoot. I guess they were representing our city's Wehrmacht contingent The driver was wearing a black leather jacket (no insignia). It was driving in front of a Willy's jeep. It ended up being some local military vehicle collectors. I asked the driver of the BMW if he was representing city's Wehrmacht contingent in the parade and he said it was just part of their veteran's salute. I worked with the driver years ago and have displayed at shows with him and his dad so he knows I wasn't being a jerk.
It was rather jaw dropping though just walking along the parade route watching vehicles go by and this WWII WH marked BMW goes putting by. Wasn't expecting that one.
