Bruno Weiss Posted September 25, 2000 Share Posted September 25, 2000 Oh, I've seen that. It was rare, and only two prototypes were ever made. It is the Schleppenschlugen, and was one of Hitler's super weapons in development. The first prototype design failed due to an underpowerd engine. The second prototype was field tested and looked as if it would be approved for production by Reichsminister Speer, but for an untimely Allied bombing raid wherein the Eighth Air Force, experiementing with salt as a replacement for chaff anti-radar repellant, accidentally hit the Schleppenschlugen and resluted in a major toxic schlime spill at the Unterderockin test facility. Fortunately, the war ended before the Germans could further advance the program. ------------------ "Wer zuerst schiesst hat mehr von Leben" Moto-(3./JG11 "Graf") Bruno "Stachel" Weiss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Michael emrys Posted September 26, 2000 Share Posted September 26, 2000 You must have missed Kitty's post where she mentioned that her father had never quite adjusted to the fact that he never had a son.

Splinty Posted September 26, 2000 Share Posted September 26, 2000 I believe that snails were also to be introduced in early 1945 by the Germans but they were run over on their way to the front by retreating Capybaras of the 15th Rodent Abt. ------------------ Nicht Schiessen!!
