Steyer Kommandeurwagen
Does anyone know anything about this particular vehicle with regard to who used them, at what level and where deployed and where they saw action, also any colour photos may help too, many thanks.

Hope to see him at Beltring
Herr Hauptman when you say who used them do you mean what unit eg LAH GD or how were they employed in the unit ?

Re: Steyer Kommandeurwagen
The troop carrier type has room for 8 passengers as thats how many people it takes to push the bar-stuards.
As the Kommando (war stories for boys) wagen has only 4 seats it will never move at all.
Your better off with a Waffenampt skateboard and "No Fear" logo zeltbarn.
