The 21.PzD in 1944 had over 50 different softskin types, most of them French, including Citroën, Laffly and Renault trucks as well as Somua French tanks and Hotchkiss French armored vehicles. Logically, French mechanics were needed to maintain them. The 2nd Werkstattkompanie (logistics, reparation) is composed of 230 French volunteers. No national insignia.
