Thanks Carl.

Can i just confirm.

In the latter half of the war, the drivers of halftracks, even those in Infantry units, wore the same uniform as Assault gun crews.

I guess this would make sense as the drivers would spend mosy time in the vehicles anyway.

You mention the Panzer black. I assume this would apply to those manning halftracks in a Pazer Regiment, and not those in the PzGren Regiment of a Panzer Div.
