German Maultier Halftracks in Mud on Eastern Front (WW2)

The Germans built Maultier ("Mule") half-tracks by adding a rear track unit to Opel, Mercedes-Benz or Ford trucks.  Half-tracks were needed to deal with the "Rasputitsa" on the Russian Front in WW2.  This short video shows how the mud built up on the roadwheels.
