Now as before, the Heeresschlitten - army sledges - Hf. 41, 42, 43 (two-horse) and Hf. 61 and 61/1 introduced in winter 1941/42 are a bit misterious. Most probably, the illustrated sledge is one of the mentioned Heeresschlitten. (German federal archive via Wikimedia Commons; License: Creative Commons BY-SA-3.0-gb)

Also these sledges are most probably of one type of the above mentioned Heeresschlitten. Who can provide further information to these sledges? In addition to this question, the manuals D 71 Schlitten from 23rd February 1942 and D 72 Verladen von Feldküchen auf Kastenschlitten 41 from 12th January 1941 are searched for.
