The first time I see such thing
I m bing watching this swedish museum channel
An often overlooked topic! Thank you Stefan and the team at Arsenalen.
as an Army maintainer I really appreciate this
I find pretty wholesome to see the human aspects of military being presented, like coffee and candy and the toilet hut. After all, these tanks and stuff are all operated by humans.
It looks perfect ..all this stuff and the portable toilet
Definitely an oft forgotten part of the military. I liked the thought of the cardboard outhouse too. I imagine it's better than a shovel and a bush.
Much better in the winter. Ground is frozen solid and hard as concrete ( up to a meter) in the middle of the winter. Digging a hole in the snow might seem like a good idea, until some poor bugger takes a walk in the dark. And the mess in the spring will be horrible if you have something as a repair shop or other semi stationary camps.
hope its heated if outside and real cold cause if you sit you and it are leaving together.
@@secularnevrosis I heard a funny story on a YT channel from some US Marine vets. They were talking about how their standard is to shit, then place a rock over it so it won't be spotted. They stayed in the same place for several months, and by the end, every rock you picked up already had shit and TP under it, so they just had to lift them one by one until they found a non-shat on one.
Interesting subject, thank you Stefan!
Great to see the mobile workshop, as a mechanic I can’t imagine trying to work in this stuff in such primitive conditions!
Also it must be noted that these mobile workshops would service anything that would show up. Think like Motorcycles or civilian cars in army service. With these would also travel the kind of People that could fix anything, and make anything, thus they could adapt equipment in the field or even invent and construct on the go.
All this is very handy in a modern war, and can be converted perfectly to guerrilla warfare... Which was plan B for Sweden during these days.
I have a friend that served as a mechanic in an armored brigade. He worked on everything up to the pbv 302 and that includes ordinary cars, motorcycles, TGB 11, 13, 30 and 40, and even small electric generators with lawnmower engines. Imagine being woken up in the middle of the night, pull the cammo from the TGB, drive an hour in a forrest (with lights out) looking for the right tent, just to find out that the generator was just out of gas.
Not. Fun.
Great job never seen how they repaired tanks and other vehicles
Yay! The Man is back. :)
Verry good. Thank you. Interesting as allways
Excellent - thank you!
Great video! Very interesting - a repair video is a great idea
We had these fun diesel or kero fuelled water heaters in the Army. It used a drip feed to a burner well immersed in the bottom of a 55 gallon drum. An asbestos wad affixed to the end of a steel rod, soaked in kero & set alight was put down the well by hand to light so you could get hw for ablutions. Often some joker would adjust the dribbler valve to a good stream & light it, resulting in a great fwoom noise accompanied by a vertical volcano like plume heading skyward. lol
Great👍🏻
Tanks, yes thanks 👍🏻
1:10 Howie did it in Sweden.
Greetings to all Binkie fans ❤
Most excellent!!
Army guys operating lathes. If we had that in the Cdn. Army some DND union mucky muck from Quebec would have put a stop to that pretty damn quick. In fact they got rid of the whole MOC of Machinist around 1989. Right around that time there was an uptick in all sorts of vehicles being sent to a civvy DND workshop in Montreal. The shop officials (civvies) had the power to overrule the chain of command & could take anything they wanted away from CF units for repairs (busywork). They even decided army units did not require Assault Pioneer platoons anymore. One of the reasons I saw no future for myself in the CF. And you sure weren't muscling in to get a job in any DND workshop in Montreal. Heroes.
Bra jobbat 👍
Did they change to a different design in 2000?
He mentioned now are in containers - standard size to move it easier.
But, all in all, the gist seems to be the same.
I actually found a training video for WWII sherman field maintenance, and it's not far from that.
Tents to have tank and space behind the tank to take out the engine, blacked out, heated by a gasoline burner.
The main feature is that tent had an opening on the roof: to lift heavy things, they could place a crane or a recovery vehicle with an A-crane *outside* the tent and fit the hook through the roof, if they don't have the specific rails and chains to do it inside.
If I remember correctly, in that video they had also truck/cabinets: the boxes and equipment was mounted in a firefigher-like configuration, with doors and drawers all around.
You put this "self propelled cabinet" on a dodge chassis(?) under a tent and you can just pick the spares from it, without unload and reload things
is that a piece of the berlin wall in the back ground with the graffitti?
Yes.
