[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by fec153 yncs- isn't that the weapon we had mounted on our half-tracks?

[:)] Two American Jeeps with 50 cals would always harrass the Germans out in the desert. The Germans from time to time (on the show) sometimes had half tracks. The 40mms were also used on the famous PT Boats. [8D] But the PT Boats could be outfitted for a variety of weapons. According to the PT109 movie it had a 37mm antitank gun mounted on it, in addition to the 40mm. The Germans also had small boats like PT boats only you don't hear much about them. I think the Russians also had a PT like boat, but again you don't hear much about them either. Another good ol WWII show was "Combat" with Vic Morrow. Now I am really dating myself. [;)] [:(] [;)] Of course I was very young then. But I remember seeing some of them and always like them. I love history and get several WWII mags. [;)]
