Camions Bernard

 

 

 

 

 

Bernard was founded as SA des Bennes Basculantes E. Bernard in Arcueil near Paris in 1923. At the beginning, a lorry with a payload of two tons was manufactured. Busses were made beginning in 1926. In 1929, the company was renamed to Camions Bernard. Production of own developed engines started the same year. In 1932, a lorry with a payload of 6.5 tons was introduced. Beginning in 1935, three axle lorries with 12, 15 and 18 tons payload were made. The French army procured some tank transporters on this chassis. Production was continued in smaller numbers for the Wehrmacht. In the case of the diesel vehicles there were informative type designations: First character D = diesel engine, second character load capacity (A-L), number of cylinders 3, 4 or 6, two digit number wheelbase in decimetre. Additional characters followed or were put in between: A, C, D, E = front axle positioned back, BB = dumper chassis, R = double reduced gear.
