Well that's what the web page I researched it from said. I think, any ways that's my story and I am sticking to it :-}

Would "Schutzenpamzerwagen" fit the abbreviation Sd.Kfz. better.

Hopefully Michael81Dus can straighten me out???

Would "Schutzenpanzerwagen" fit the abbreviation Sd.Kfz. better.

No. That's a Guards' battle vehicle, or in this case, a Scouts' battle vehicle. (Probably like an armored personnel carrier; filling the role of a modern armored HMMV.)

Lit: guards' armored vehicle.
