He probably gave away some vehicles as well, if you havent seen them.

This isn't from a manufacturer, it's a label from an army workshop. Usually they are added after a revision.

VonForhud,
Assuming this gentleman's story was correct...

The M44 is the gun mount for the M3A3, but this data plate differs slightly from the data plate that I found in the 'Ft Benning Armor Museums' M3A3.

Unknown BMW Badge

This is the stadard BMW factory badge.
Because it is part of the Ordnance museum, most likely was it fitted to a BMW motorcycle

Walter

Or a Leichte Einheits PKW

Michel_Krauss

could be, however the BMW motorcycles are more common

also, most german military cars don't have manufacturers badges

The common kubelwagen and schwimmwagen don't have manufacturer badges, only the badge VW is stamped into certain parts.
For example VW stamped into the fuel filling cap.

Walter

Yes but the Leichte Einheits PKW ,that came from BMW had on the early vehicles a BMW badge at the front

Walter

And to back up this story
Here is the Leichte Einheits PKW at APG
Picture is from Neil's photobucket site ( many thanks )

Michel_Krauss

ok, you have won Walter

So it could also have been a BMW Leichte Einheits PKW
