Landwasser

[Laugier Didier]

Hi all.

Two interesting photos of Landwasser (1° model) belonging, I think, to the Landungs Pionier Kompanie 540.
Photos made by a rottenfüfrer of the SS-Sanitats.Abt.5.
Cordially

Very nice Didier,

mille fois merci for sharing. Just one quick tidbit: "Landwasser" does not make any sense and is not even a German word, they were called Land-Wasser-Schlepper, land-water-tractors.

Cordiallement,

JM

Cool photos. I've never seen these before. I'm continually amazed at the high level of military technology of the German military of the time.

It would be interesting to know if the mass produced U.S. DUKW was a cheap knock-off of this obviously more sophisticated vehicle.
