Polish Praga RV Cargo Truck. Summer, 1939.


Polish Praga RV Cargo Truck. Summer, 1939

A strange tour

In the summer of 1939 the Poles received of the Germans 300 truck Prague RV of 2-ton load .

Were provided in compliance with the German-Polish Treaty Rail Transit between West German territory and German East Prussia through Polish territory.

Trucks Prague RV had been commandeered by the Germans after the invasion and occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1938.

After the battles of September 1939, many of these trucks returned to the hands of the Germans, others were captured by the Russians, then others were used to transport the Polish troops to the border of Hungary, where they were interned. This time the trucks requisitioned in the border were transferred to the Hungarian Army.




Un extraño recorrido

En el verano de 1939 los polacos recibieron de los alemanes 300 camiones Praga RV de 2-ton. 

Se entregaron en cumplimiento del Tratado Germano-Polaco de Tránsito Ferroviario. Éste consistía en la autorización, por parte del gobierno polaco y con determinadas condiciones, al tránsito ferroviario entre el territorio alemán del oeste y la Prusia Oriental alemana a través del propio territorio polaco.

Los camiones Praga RV habían sido requisados por los alemanes después de la invasión y ocupación de Checoslovaquia en 1938.

Después de las batallas de septiembre de 1939,  muchos de estos camiones volvieron a manos de los alemanes; otros fueron capturados por los rusos, y finalmente otros fueron utilizados para transportar a las tropas polacas hasta la frontera de Hungría, donde quedaron internadas. Esta vez los camiones requisados en la frontera pasaron a manos del Ejército Húngaro.
