Re-supply / drop containers

[Mat Holloway]

Does anyone have a photo of a resupply container not the falschirmjager type but the one used to resupply troops in forward / isolated positions.
Even better if someone has an example to show / sell
much appreciated

Matt, I was looking through some Luftwaffe books last night and I did see a photo. I will dig the books out again and try to take a photo of the photo.

The following photograph comes from the book German bombers over Russia
( ISBN 0 85059 346 8 ) by Bryan Philpott which was first published in 1979.
The photo is at the bottom of page 84 and the Bundesarchiv number is 667/7133/3

Book is available via Amazon if required. http://www.amazon.co.uk/LUFTWAFFE-BO...9167243&sr=1-1

Found another one.

Was that what you were after Matt?

[Mat Holloway]

Hi david,
that wasnt the one i had in mind!! I never knew that type existed at all!
I was referring to the type shaped like a bomb that had had the circular kraftstoff cans in etc.

Thanks for posting the photos as this is a type i didm not know existed, does anyone know of any survivors.

[David Fettes]
