► Photothread: French Equipment in German Service

[SIS 5]

Hi Bill,

excuse me, please, but I have a problem with Your identification. If my informations are right, the type H 1 B 6 was a truck for 8 tons and the type H 2 B 6 for 6,5 tons. The truck on the pic of Sturm 78 looks for me a little bit smaller and I think it is a truck for 5 tons. Then it could be the type FB 6 or FSPB 4. It is a pity that I don´t have a pic of this truck with the version of the pic. But there were different mudguards,cooling louvres and cabs depending on the series.

Regards

Bert

Hello all,
Here is a Laffly S35T in SS service. I had at first taken it to be a Scammel, but now am sure it is a Laffly,

Are these French, I wonder?

Not sure how much use is going to be made of them...

Hi Sturm 78,

thank You very much for posting these very interesting pics. Especially interesting is pic 2 with a very special body I haven´t seen, yet. It is a pity, I cannot read the text on the body. The beginning could be "Reichs ...". I´m not sure, if it is the type F 917 WS. I think it could also be smaller type F 11 W.

To pic 3: I think like You, that it is a Latil. Looking on Holger´s site it could be a 10-tonner, maybe the type H 2 A 1 Y 10.
