GMC Amphibious truck

This amphibious vehicle was used for landing in Normandy and later adapted to the needs of the National Fire Brigade, from 1951. Particularly effective in interventions to help the flooded populations, was used for example in Polesine, Holland and Florence in 1966. It remained active until the early eighties. He could carry up to forty men and up to fifty quintals of material. Its six-cylinder GMC engine delivered 95 hp, which allowed a speed of 14 km / h in water and 85 km on the road.
