Re: LWS
Hi,
here another pic of a LWS, this time in the snow in Russia (source: "German Military Vehicle Rarities (3) by Henry Hoppe). Interesting the caption: "This photograph of LWS 526 was possibly taken in winter 1941/42 at Dievenov with assault-engineer-company 778. This vehicle is a mixed pre-series/series-production type denoted by the smaller windscreens but still fitted with three funnels on the roof and four round windows on the sides. This vehicle was later used with the Afrika Korps and again pictured there in active service."
Regards
Bert

Re: LWS
Hello to all ; interesting Bert . A little more.............................
The LWS - Landwasserschlepper in North Africa.
The Pionier-Landungs-Kompanie 778 was organized between October and December 1941, from the Lehrzug L des Pionier-Ersatz-Bataillons 2 in Dievenow and during the period February / March 1942 was transported by rail to Naples, where it moved to North Africa. In May 1942, the company arrived at Africa and moved to the Bomba Bay. The company had in its organization one LWS (AFAIK it was the 6 67). This company was part of Kampfgruppe Hecker.

A little query: how many LWS were in Africa then? Cheers. Raúl M .

Re: LWS
Hi Raúl,
here two more pics of LWS 667 in Northern Africa. I think the second pic is made on the same day in the same situation like on Your pic You posted a little bit earlier. (source of the pics: "German Military Vehicle Rarities (3) by Henry Hoppe).
