British Army Major saves Volkswagen

[sVWatt]

I had no idea that a British Army Major went to Germany after the war and over saw the rebuilding of the Wolfsburg factory, and production of the Beetle and Camper Van.

Great Story:

If your into VW history I recommend you read Small Wonder by Walter H Nelson.
Its a must read for a true Volkswagen Enthusiast !!!
