Nice WWII photo of Buffalo with piggyback ride

Post by Leo Verhagen » Sat Sep 20, 2014 12:29 pm

Here are two a nice WWII photos of a Buffalo (or LVT4) with a Studebaker M29C weasel as a piggyback ride.
Anyone who was wondering if this would fit, yes it did!
Photos were taken in the town of Middelburg, just after the liberation of this town, november 8 1944:

I like how they are two different weasels and in the time between the photo's someone smashed the front bumper pipe of the LVT4 flat ;)
