Indeed great to see this confirmed by someone who has seen the vehicle personally. Thanks Col!
So it is a classical case of beg, steal and borrow which is wholly necessary to keep an Army on its feet. Some military logistics guys say it was easy for Napoleon as he could still send off his troops and told them to live off the land. Seems not much has changed since.

Will look at the linked site in more detail later, seems difficult to browse.

Thanks all!

Hanno
