No, Paul gave the answer as it's an Munitionschlepper, in English ammunition transporter.

Re: Scrap Metal-Photo Album of Destroyed Armor

What the heck does an AJ9 turret number mean??? Very odd.

Re: Scrap Metal-Photo Album of Destroyed Armor

I have no clue.

Sounds like an LAH or Urban question.

I agree with Jim, that change in camera angle should have left some of the building with the partial roof in the photo.

Note the outside road wheel second from the drive sprocket. In my photo it looks to be sunk in the mud almost to the hub. In Horch's photo it is completely exposed.

That really pronounced list to the right seen in the second photo is not as steep as in photo one.

My theory is that one photograph was taken after the vehicle had been towed a short distance.

Any thoughts as to which?
Check the mud pile at the rear wheels.....then the location of the camera in the first pic......the framed up building is JUST outta frame in the 2nd pic.....Since the mud in the rear looks the same...I don't think they moved it
