Site showing photos from original Czech OT vehicle manual and troop training manual. Interesting to note that the mount-up procedure of passing weapons inside and 'inter-locking knees', as seen where the troops are sitting down within the vehicle, is similar to the German wartime practices.....

Hi!

I stumbled on this site whilst surfing the net. LOTS of pictures. I suspect it is already known to Max as the site owner is a member of 7th Kompanie Grossdeutschland living history unit (USA) and there is a link to our site on their page. Nice to see what others are doing. Gives us added incentive and inspiration to get ours on the road!
