Default FLAK auf Schlitten

This next Schlitten has what appears to be a FLAK 38 under a canvas tarp. The motive power in this picture is equine, but I'm sure this sled was vehicle towed at times. Compare this sled to the Canadian trailer I posted in The Gun Park forum, thread is titled, Canadian towed AA gun trials.

Default SchlittenFarht

Last picture I wish to present is the onomatopoeic "SchlittenFarht". I couldn't imagine being dragged around a battlefield behind a StuG III in a sled, nor could Das Heere, hence the name. Sorry, bad joke. Actually, a good way to allow the PanzerGrenadiers to keep close support of their armour when deep snow would quickly exhaust them if on foot.
