Sturmgeschütz-Abt. 200 (Baukommando Becker), Maisons-Laffitte, France 1943-44

  • last year
Becker established his headquarters (Baukommando Becker) at Maisons-Laffitte, on the northern outskirts of Paris.
His command utilized three former French automobile factories: Matford, Talbot, and Hotchkiss, all near Paris.
Becker sent his men out throughout the French countryside to retrieve every French vehicle, no matter its condition, and bring it back to the collection site at the Hotchkiss factory.
There, Becker’s staff would determine whether to scrap the vehicle or to use it. All useful parts were removed from scrapped vehicles.
