Wehrmacht bicycle
Posted: Wed Jun 15, 2005 8:41 am
I am looking for information regarding bicycles used by the Wehrmacht. Was there a particular manufacturer that made these bicycles, or where these various civilian models pressed into service? I am also interesed in any units / divisions where these troops were employed. Were they used on for recon., or where there grenadier units or other units that were typically mounted on bicycles? I am trying to put together a living history display and want to gather as much info as possible topresent it correctly. I am particularly looking for German units that employed these troops in the Normandy campaign and the Ardennes campaign. I am also looking for Eastern Theater references also.
I've looked all over and there isn't much out there on this subject. Thanks for any help you can provide.
