Comandeered by Canadians

[sapper740]

It can't have been just the Brits, Yanks, Russkies and Jerries having all the fun with vehicles of other nations. I've finally found a pic of some Canadians, recently freed from a German P.O.W. camp, enjoying the use of a German car to drive to the ex-P.O.W. camp in Luneburg, Germany. No date with the pic, but obviously very late in the war. Two of the soldiers are from B.C., one from Sask., and the other from Man. Any ideas on what type of vehicle they are driving?



CHIMO!

Mercedes-Benz 170 VK (Kubelwagen) with 3 seat/3 door equipment body, therefore either a Kfz 2/1, 2/2 or 2/40.

(Credit to Paul Hocking, I'm not that cute on WWII German vehicles!!)
