The Panzer-Jägers theme was always one
of the major interest groups of the publisher. The Marder III series were a
very important and interesting series which generated Nuts & Bolts Vol.'s
15, 17, 18. They accepted at this time that it was also historically important
to include the Marder II as it was one of the early and proficient tank
hunters.
However, the publisher also appreciated that their readers were interested in
other important German WWII ground equipment so they had decided that a further
volume would follow in the Panzer-Jäger family on the important "Marder
II", but at a later date.
To keep the series diversified the publisher produced titles with different
themes like Panzer-Artillerie and half-tracked transport etc. In the meantime
they had received additional information/photos etc on earlier Panzer-Jäger
vehicles and therefore they revised Nuts & Bolts Vol. 9 on the armoured RSO
and Vol. 23 on the Panzerjäger I; together with a new Vol. 24 on the
"Marder II" based upon the Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. D & E. Now they are
proud to present Nuts & Bolts Vol. 31 concerning the „Marder II“ (Sd.Kfz.
131) on the chassis of the Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. A-C & F:
