Yes, the link is to facebook, but I haven't found a link yet that will get you to the regular internet. It got posted to the National Armor and Cavalry Museum facebook page. It shows recovery operations for stuck armored cars, interesting equipment and a bit of train travel. link |

The title says that it is the 16th of June. The lack of foliage on the trees and some civilians are seen wearing coats leads me to think it may be early May instead. The soft ground that the Panhards keep getting stuck in reinforces my thinking that it was filmed in the mid Spring
Great historical footage! |

There was a series of color 8mm films made by a member of a recon unit that was equipped with Panhards. It was called "Mein Krieg" or "My War". I saw it 15 years ago, but don't know if this a from that. |

The horizontal "E" in a few scenes indicate that these are from the 3 Panzer Division 1939-40.
Could be later as they may have note changed the symbols. link |

At the 3:30 mark, you see the division marking for the 20.Pz.Div. I wonder if they actually used the French equipment in Barbarosa. Mark |

The Panard command car in the ditch is 3rd by the marking and also on a M/C combo
I know the 7th used Panards for Barbarossa

Looking up Nicolassee on Google map puts it west of Berlin, is that supposed to be East Prussia? |

I wonder about what are the round things on the inside of the Armored Cars door at about the 1:00 mark. |
