…1941 -43
"Going deeper into the subject of water as of February 1942, the DAK had the Nachschubstab für Wasserversorgung 580 as a troop at Corps level. This staff was organized on September 5, 1941 in the Military District (WK) III. It was established as an army-level force for Panzer Group Africa. On July 16, 1942, it was renamed as Bataillonsstab für Wasserversorgung 580. The unit was disbanded on February 28, 1943…"

But Humphrey Bogart and Lullabelle will keep them away from the water and "collar the lot". ("Tobruk", but you knew that of course.) |

Close deadhead. That was the 1943 movie "Sahara" and the tank was Lulubelle. :) |

"Sahara"…..! I was nearly right, nearly. I have watched it over and over since it streamed over here without adverts. I would love to pretend that "Tobruk" never existed, but it actually was a fairly reasonably (by Hollywood standards) tale of a raid that went disastrously wrong. !943 "Sahara" (AKA Tobruk ref Flood LM 2024, erroneously) is a great watch if you have the slightest interest in US AFVs or just how "cool" was Humph Bog, before Hilttz and his motorbike succeeded him |

"The Cooler King", nice reference to McQueen and The Great Escape! Love the obscure references. |
