I used German Motor Cycles with Panzerfausts when we wargame with minis. But it was manpack and shoulder fired. When I was with the 101 in the early '80s. At one point our Scouts had Suzuki 250s(?) with an M47 MAW Dragon slug over the biker's shoulder. |

Seems in the end they'd have actually been better attempting to sell the military Vespa's without the RR! Not CW or as good as the Pzfaust Donkey but new to me..

I had seen photos of them before but never knew that they were used in combat. |
