Odd that the title is Barbarossa Stowage, but the cover picture is a Pz lV without any stowage whatsoever! Would expect to see everything plus the kitchen sink!

This is an excellent if esoteric book. I wish I knew about it before I started my Barbarossa panzer IV's though.

Hi Biggles - your missing the point This book breaks the myth that troops just chucked everything on their vehicles. It proves each unit (down to Kompanie level) had a very specific structure to what went where. The cover is 3rd Kompanie, PzRgt 11 - 6th PzDiv. Who had four jerry cans on the left fender, two spare wheels on the right engine side and a short run of track links on the hull side below the first and second return rollers.

enjoy

Nerts. It is a $50.00 book. And it goes up from there if you want hardcover.
