Hello!

My friend Tim Adler asked me a question about history that I did not know. For obvious reasons, he was interested in Rommel's Command Halftrack - a 250/6 maybe, which was named "ADLER" (Eagle).

I know that Rommel was not in Africa when his men surrendered...but was his halftrack?

Has this survived the war in a museum somewhere? Did the British capture it as a trophy? Help!
