Thread: German Field Kitchens of the Second World War
Part One: The Field Kitchen( Feldküche) 1/17
Part One: The Field Kitchen( Feldküche) 1/17
The Hf 11/13 and Hf 12/14 field kitchens were the workhorses of the German armed forces during world war two. The larger of the two models could feed up to 225 soldiers on a daily basis...and the smaller up to 125 soldiers per day. Both were engineered for maximum efficiency. 2
The field kitchens would be transported to the various fronts a number of different ways. Initially a train would be required for most of the journey. From each staging point or supply depot the kitchens could be transported by vehicle or towed by horseback. 3
