They were Canadian builders of tractors and buses, based off of Ford platforms.  That is a Marmon-Herrington Armoured Car Mk II in the picture.

I say no due to lack of information and a less than enthusiastic OP.


Marmon-Herrington 441

Besides, I think the driver is a durned hippy.

OK.  This is a freakish coincidence.

wiki:
Quote
The Free Society of Teutonia was a German American organisation that was associated with a strong support for Nazism.

The FST was formed in 1924 by four German immigrants, including Nazi Party members Fritz and Peter Gissibl, based in Chicago. Initially functioning as a club, the FST soon raised a group of militants based on the SA and, with membership increasing, became leading critics of Jews, communism and the Treaty of Versailles.

The group gained a strong, if fairly small following, and spawned the Friends of the Hitler Movement, a group for those without German connections who nonetheless sympathised with the Nazis. After working closely with the Friends of New Germany the Free Society was ultimately absorbed into the German American Bund in 1936.

So, would it be considered a "captured" vehicle and thus ineligible for use in AH?

The only advantage that thing would have is a better relation to the sheep in this game. I would much rather see a 1940 staff car filled with Tommy gun waving thugs added then that worthless piece of junk tractor. The thing looks like the little rascals taped some card board together over their radio flyer.

I think it would be a great add to the inventory.  The latest and greatest means little to me.  Accuracy of model, variety of models & immersion are of more importance. :aok
