Lots of photos out there of Schwimms on sandy ground , surrounded by palm type trees , and even driven by a bunch of Yanks but the captions don't really state weather it's southern Italy ,Sicily or North Africa . And a lot of the model companies give you Afrika Korps decals in their Schwimm kits but none of the pictures I've found show the vehicle markings clear enough to be sure . It would fit in the 1942/43 time frame of the Germans in North Africa , but I've found no concrete evidence as yet that it was there . But who's to say there weren't a few in service in Africa , Rommel had a few weird vehicles in his army ( Bison II , Bison III { one of a kind IRC } ,Land-Wasser-Schlepper & Diana ), so maybe a couple might show up
