    Germany only fielded 20-40 armored cars in World War 1, mostly on the Eastern Front. Not much about their operational history is known but they did play an important role in the German Civil War and the Weimar Republic.

    Ralf looks like he's either a hitman from the Russian mob -- or a bass player from a lounge jazz band.

    The story behind the top half of the armored car used as a WW2 shelter was cool.

    I mean, if I was a rioter and saw an armoured car with machine guns ready to mow people down like in the Somme, I'd probably leave, rethink my life choices and why I live in this country.

    I don't know if this has been talked about before but I think it might be quite interesting to discuss the France-Serbia relationship before and during the war

    @MoveAhead101 Před 6 lety +13

    Munster is 40 km south of Hamburg, the bigger city Münster in Westf. is about 240 km south of Hamburg. It is close to the netherlands. Münster (with „ü“) is called „Munster“ on dutch to make it even more confusing.

    Synopsis of the video: The Germans had 20 to 40 armored cars, mostly on the Eastern Front. They frequently provided security behind the German lines. During a battle with the Romanians, the Germans assembled a combined arms task force that encircled the enemy. The task force may have included one or more German armored cars. In other words, a German commander rediscovered Napoleon's combined arms army corps blending infantry, cavalry, and artillery. Let me recommend David Chandler's masterpiece book - "The Campaigns of Napoleon."
