Fezzo's Fixers
DAK Logistics & Services by "Fezzo" AANA's Founding Seven Research Fellow 
"Fezzo" will provide a summary of the various DAK or "AFRIKAKORPS" units and fielded service teams that kept the Panzers (and 'Softskins') and even the 'truppen' rolling... Web pages will be added for: - Water & Filtration Units: To find/locate aquifers, dig wells or to deliver "sweet water"
- Meteorological Units: Weather services and communication interlink between air, naval and grounds arms of service
- Survey and Cartography: Field units to scout, map, and survey or set fields of fire for 'Artillerie'
- Jan (FEZZO) is currently doing an in-depth study to be shortly released on the "WEISS" Beobachtungs Gruppe
- Fezzo & Nacht acquired a nice collection of materials with maps, diaries & photographs from a member of this "WEISS" group to research through and later present here more completely...
Examples: 


- Werkstatt / Repair Units: The Mechanics and service technicians that kept the vehicles operating
- Recovery & Salvage: Service teams that assayed and brought back AFV's from the field to service depots or identified problems for repair teams
- Part Delivery & Part Salvage: Service personnel that ordered or acquired (ordered, made or machined) parts, tools or equipment
- Logistics and Supply: Supply units from ship at port or aircraft at airfield to unit in the field
Additional Research Area: - Medical Units: The 'Medical Artz' teams from Physicians to Nurses and types of treatment centers
- Veterinary Units: Veterinarians that maintained or acquired healthy animals for food sources
