I'll have a stab at your 'tiny attachment'

is it an Auto Union/Horch 801v, better known as an Sd.Kfz 222?

Bodston · 08-06-2007, 12:37 AM

or a BA-64

Otter.

The Otter Reconnaissance Car
The Otter Reconnaissance Car, yet another product of GM Oshawa (Ontario), is so ugly it's beautiful! Some 1761 were produced, and most saw service in both Italy and northern Europe in security and convoy escort roles.

I think you've got it.

That Otter and the CT15 look very Humber Pig-ish or Saracen-like don't they?
Some lovely photos of them on this site.

Yup, Canadian Otter. It does have that Alvis kind of look about it doesn't it? You might expect it to turn up in photos from Aden in the 1960's or something. I have seen photos of a nice runner currently attending shows on the continent, possibly Belgium, but I have lost the link. Sory about the size of the photo.

What is this?

von Poop · 08-06-2007, 10:56 AM

That would be an M32 recovery Sherman fitted with the rather unusual 'Earthworm' mineclearing attachment... somewhere in Italy.
