I believe that if we asked any soldier of any army of any time in history they would all agree that this is the best part of their day. :)

Max, you might have missed another aspect of a soldier's ambitions there.

Hi all,

I am not sure about these kitchens in German use : M09 (mot.) ??
If this is correct, Which is the origin of these kitchens ? Austria or Czechoslovakia ??

I think there are some differences respect the original horse-drawn M09 of Austro-Hungarian origin (apart of the wheels), so I think that these kitchens could have been new manufactured in 1930s....

Hi Sturm 78,

interesting questions. I will try to answer.
You are right, all the field kitchens on Your pics are captured Czechoslovakian field kitchens M 09. The origin of these kitchens is the Austrian-Hungarian, so-called "große Armee-Fahrküche M 09" produced by the factory Manfred von Weiss in Budapest. You are right, these field kitchen must have been produced later with other wheels for the motorized transport. I have to look for further information. Then I let You know.

Best regards

Bert

Hi Sturm 78,

in the internet I have found the information, that the Czechoslovakian army took over some material of the former Austrian-Hungarian army, among it also the field kitchen M 09, which was produced in the company Breitenfeld-Daněk in Prague. There are pics of such a restored field kitchen produced by this company in Prague. Source: http://www.vhu.cz/ceskoslovenska-prevoz ... e-vzor-09/

Best regards

Hi Bert,

Thanks for your information and images.
Respect to old M09 kitchen wuth wooden wheels i can see the following differences:

-Small side compartment with door in the side, not top door
-Constant width along the entire length of the kitchen. while the older model has a narrower front section
-Different wheels

Hi Sturm,

You are right, there are too many differences between the horse-drawn and motorized version of this field kitchen.
Now to the other questions:
Image 1: You are right, it is a Hf.11, but not with the typical front limber. Here three pics of such a limber, maybe from another producer.

Now image 2:

it is a kleine Feldküche (small field kitchen) Hf. 11 or 13 with an additional cooking compartment. The chimney is from Hf. 11, but the rest I cannot say. Here a pic of such a modification.

Best regards
