SANTIAGO ALVAREZ, THE GAS VANS 346<br />

Appendix 8: Special Vehicles of the German Army<br />

<strong>The</strong> technical data given for the two decontamination vehicles were<br />

taken from a German wartime brochure in the author’s possession entitled<br />

Bildermappe. Eingeführte Waffen und Geräte (Picture Folder. Introduced<br />

Weapons and Devices), which contained a collection of numerous<br />

German army vehicles and their technical data.<br />

Illustration 22: Krupp L3H63 (picture from Milsom 1975, p. 104).<br />

Milsom does not give any indication as to the Sd.-Kfz. number assigned<br />

to this vehicle nor about its purpose or technical data. Since<br />

the vehicle did not seem to have had any special equipment, this<br />

might just have been a closed transportation van.
