Bandvagn 202 (Bv 202) is an amphibious oversnow tracked articulated, all-terrain vehicle developed by Bolinder-Munktell, a subsidiary of Volvo, for the Swedish Army in the early 1960's. The vehicle is formed by two rubber Kegresse track units with a multi-directional pivot in between. The front unit contains the engine and gearbox through which power is delivered to the front and, via a propshaft in the pivot mechanism, the rear tracks. A hydraulic ram on the pivot "bends" the vehicle in the middle to steer it - there is no braking of track units for steering as on conventional tracklaying vehicles.
The controls are a conventional steering wheel on the left hand front of the vehicle. It can reach a speed of 24 mph on land and 3.1 mph (4 kn) on water. The Bv 202 carries a driver and a commander in the front unit and up to 8 troops or 1,763 lb in the trailer unit. It can be adapted for other applications. Production started in Arvika in 1964 and ended in 1981. The Bv 202 has since been succeeded by the Hägglunds Bandvagn 206.
The Bv 202 was designed to transport troops and equipment through snow or boglands in the northern parts of Sweden. The last Swedish unit to use this vehicle was the Cavalry, who found that the manual gearbox Bv 202 was much quieter than the automatic transmission Bv 206. In the Norwegian army units that had both Bv 202 and Bv 206 ran the Bv 202 as the first vehicle if the snow conditions were challenging. The Bv 202 performed better in deep and/or difficult snow conditions.
The Mk. I Bv 202 is powered by an 82.5 bhp Volvo B18, the Mk. II by the 97 bhp B20. It has less ground pressure than a skier and is fully amphibious. The Bv 202 was used by NATO forces, and replaced the older Swedish Snow Trac ST4 Over-snow Vehicle, which was employed by the British Royal Marines under NATO.

Bobcat UTVs offer two types of suspension for the best driving experience.
The 3600 and 3650 models feature De Dion suspension for towing and hauling. The weight of the trailer load is distributed directly to the tires without compressing the suspension, allowing for increased payload and towing capacities while still managing comfort.

On my vistit here I was talking to the motel owner about there used to be a ''Duck'' (DUKW) at Searles of Hunstanton, and this turned out to be the one !

— Anglia Motel Veterans champion Harold Payne’s final 80th D-Day voyage pays respects to the fallen —
The organiser of a voyage to France to mark the 80th anniversary of D-Day is on his final pilgrimage to pay tribute to the bravery of our armed forces. Harold Payne has taken a final coach party to Normandy to pay respects to allied forces killed in World War II. Sadly, any remaining veterans who would have accompanied him for Thursday’s anniversary have since died. The veterans' champion, who owns the Anglia Motel in Fleet Hargate, said: ''Over the past 30 years I have had the honour to take local veterans back to Normandy to pay respect to their fallen comrades''.
''Now for the 80th anniversary of D-Day, for the first and final time I will be returning without any veterans as they have now all passed away. For this, my final tribute to the bravery of all those who died for our freedom, I shall return taking with me my amphibious landing craft to the beaches where all those years ago so many lost their lives.”
To break the Nazis’ stranglehold on Europe, Allied forces launched ''Operation Overlord'' on June 6th, 1944, when thousands of British, American and Canadian troops landed on the beaches of Normandy to fight their way up – while being battered by enemy fire. The sea was reported to run red and nearly 4,000 deaths and 11,000 allied casualties were recorded by the end of that first fateful day.
The pilgrimages from Lincolnshire were launched after a former soldier had stopped at Harold’s Anglian Motel in Fleet Hargate and shared how he didn’t have the means to return to see the friends he had left behind in Arnhem and Normandy. Mr Payne plans to go into the sea in the early hours of today to lay red rose petals and poppies.
He said: ''They may be washed ashore as a reminder of the loss of so many lives''. The charity campaigner has raised funds in aid of veterans to make a pilgrimage to Normandy and visit cemeteries to lay flowers on the graves of friends. To help fund such trips there have been sponsors such as Fleet Parish Council, J Z Flowers and Turnbulls in Sleaford. He said: ''I am fortunate and immensely grateful to have received many sponsors. Many friends and colleagues have also helped to make this memorial tribute possible and I wish to truly thank them on behalf of myself and the past veterans''.

Location: Brisbane, Queensland.
Description: A British Talbot with a customised roadster utility body built as Commissioner's inspection car for the proposed Queensland Transcontinental Railway. The front mudguards are high mounted high to give ample clearance to prevent the buildup of mud, note also the shovel for digging out. The other accessories fitted are typical of the period. No Queensland Transcontinental Railway ever eventuated; at different times one was proposed from Dalby via Roma to the Gulf of Carpentaria and another from Brisbane to Adelaide. The Talbot motor car was known at the time for outstanding reliability. The vehicle is parked outside the Metropolitan Buildings, 85 Adelaide St., Brisbane.

1941-1945 WILLYS MB
The U.S. Army requested a vehicle, and drove off in a 'hero' the Willys MB, its spirit forged by the fire of combat and honed in the heat of battle, seared its way into the hearts of warriors fighting for freedom. Fierce emotional bonds often developed between a soldier and his "Jeep" 4x4. The faithful MB earned a place in every GI's heart, in every area of combat, in every conceivable role. The tough, simple Jeep 4x4 became the GI's best friend, second only to his rifle. One Jeep MB was even awarded a Purple Heart and sent home. General George C. Marshall, US Army Chief of Staff during World War Two, and later U.S. Secretary of State, described the Jeep 4x4 as 'America's greatest contribution to modern warfare' Scripps Howard World War Two reporter Ernie Pyle once said, ''It did everything. It went everywhere. Was a faithful as a dog, as strong as a mule, and as agile as a goat. It constantly carried twice what it was designed for and still kept going."
The Willys MB started a revolution in the use of small military motor vehicles in the U.S. Army, Horses along with motorcycles, solo and side car, were rendered obsolete almost immediately. The all-purpose Willys MB was amazingly versatile, they could be fitted with .30 or .50 caliber Machine Guns for combat and were also widely modified for long-range desert patrol, snow plowing, telephone cable laying, saw milling, as fire-fighting pumpers, field ambulances, tractors and, with suitable wheels, would even run on railway tracks.
Willys MB's could be loaded into transport aircraft for rapid deployment and were also small enough to fit into the large gliders used in the D-day invasion of Europe, over the course of the war, customised field kits were developed for winter and desert conditions, deep-water fording and other combat needs.
Although the Willys MB was not the first four-wheel-drive vehicle, the Go Anywhere, Do Anything vehicle influenced every 4x4 built in its wake. The New York Museum of Modern Art includes a military Jeep Brand 4x4 in its display of eight automobiles and regarded it as “one of the very few genuine expressions of machine art.”
