Hi Sturm 78,

You are right. Both models of kitchens (wz. 23 and wz. 31) are very similar. Here a drawing of both models for comparing.

Best regards

Hi all,

Hf.11 field kitchens parked. According to photo caption, this image is dated in 1908
When the Hf.11 kitchen was introduced in German Army service ?

Thanks, Max

So, it is possible that the image was taken in 1908....

Well, here another image from Ebay: Hf.11 or Hf.13 (I think)

Hi Sturm,

These are Hf.11's. Notice above the sack in the first photo, the Hf.11 stencil painted on the kitchen. Other visible features in these photos to note, double coffee boiler hatches, plain storage hatch lids, oval cutouts on the chassis and 12 rivets on the wheel hubs. However some Hf.11's seen from the 1930's onwards have X embossed hatch lids and 6 rivets on the wheel hubs, but shouldn't be confused with the Hf.13!

The vorderwagen/limber is the early wood version.

Regards,

Tim
