As Germany mobilized its military after Hitlers seizure of power in 1934, the Wehrmachts Weapons Department began transforming civilian vehicles into military vehicles. One light 1.5t and under max. load truck that was selected was the Krupp Companys L2H43. Popularly known as the Boxer because of its air-cooled flat-four square 4 cylinder engine, the L2H43 was massed-produced from 1933.
