Good Day Mates
I just got a response from Josi Zbinden who has this picture in his collection.
According to his sources, the truck in the picture is a Chevrolet, manufactured 1939, modified by Carrosserie Langenthal. This statement is from the Gruppe für Rüstungsdienste (similiar to the british MoD). This department is responsible for the acquisition of new army equipment.
He believes that the truck was used in the Militarypolice Battalion during the war. This was the first fully motorised bat!
Greetings
Chris
