    Tankograd mentions Scammels in use by the German Army.

    This publication offers for the very first time a comprehensive overview on the various British Trucks in Wehrmacht Service, covering well-known models and makes such as the Bedford and the Morris-Commercial GS trucks in the 8cwt to 3-ton range, the heavy Scammell Pioneers and AEC Matadors, specialised vehicles such as cranes and field cars as well as many rarer makes, rarities and oddities.

    A special chapter also grants an overview on the Canadian-built vehicles of the British Army that served with the Afrikakorps.
