A heavy MAN truck for specialized transport duties is loaded onto a ship bound for Norway in April 1940. These trucks could be fitted with a snowplow, which it is carrying in the rear cargo compartment. Just above the snowplow in the background are three smaller trucks also carrying snowplows, along with a variety of other trucks - Opel Blitz and Ford G917 and even a couple of Kfz.5 tanker trucks, the rarest of the Wehrmacht wheeled, soft-skinned vehicles.
A long column of soft-skinned vehicles seen from the air in the western Soviet Union in the summer of 1941. The heavy lorries in the middle of the road are towing or carrying pontoons to support temporary bridging equipment, while a number of light cross-country cars - Kfz.15 and Kfz.2 are parked along the side. Note the white width markings and the unit shield emblems painted on the cars.
A railroad trolley is unloaded from a Henschel 33 G 1 diesel engined medium truck from one of the Panzer divisions of Panzergruppe Guderian in the Soviet Union during the summer of 1941. This type of equipment was very useful in Russia due to their vast railway network and lack of good quality roads.
The same group of soldiers passes a railway station still smoldering from the effects of a Luftwaffe attack. Note that the trolley is equipped with a paddle, which could indicate the large bundle strapped to the front contains an inflatable rubber boat.
