Sdkfz 247/B

The photo is up for sale again. In service with the DAK.

Nothing in that photograph suggests it is in service with the DAK.

I only quote the seller, so perhaps there is more to it.

[Alanmccoubrey]

Probably he just wanted to make it seem more attractive.

[Luftflotte2]

Good point.

Could you possibly post the photos of the hg/fallschirm pz.gren. using the 247's? Just looking for research on hg armoured cars

oh yes, I can.
From this type were built about 60 pieces, in Berlin.

Used they were generally in reconnaissance battalions and the Kradschützenabteilungen as a staff vehicle.
But I also have pictures, who show this Sdkfz as a normal battlefield vehicle, with 6 man crew.

I have pictures, who show the sdkfz in diferent Areas of the WWII, on the eastern front (also from operation Kursk),
on the south front (italia or Greece ) and in Germany. The Divisions signs shows e.g.:

SS- LSAH
3. Panzer-Division
6. Panzer-Division
Großdeutschland
Fallschirm-Pz.Korps Hermann Göring
