German Field Maintenance Team & Equipment Set

Keeping Things Running

A field maintenance unit was usually present in a typical WWII German Army division. Equipped with tools such as an A-frame crane, compressors, jacks and a variety of welding materials, they were tasked with keeping all-important vehicles moving and contributing to the cause.

They typically moved together with the combat units they serviced, flitting around the front in their vital back-up role.
