Flak Vehicle of 19. Flak-Division in North Africa

 

A Horch 108 modified with a 20mm Flak 30 anti aircraft gun. The four-leaf clover symbol is belong to 19. Flak-Division. This is the quintessential symbol of good luck in Germany, is of Christian origin. According to Christian legend, when Eve was driven out of the Garden of Eden she took a four-leaf clover with her – to remember the good times in paradise by later on. So market gardens grow millions of potted clover plants for gift-givers at New Year’s. But hardliners say they’re cheating. To really bring good luck your four-leaf clover has to be found in the wild - where exemplars are very few and far between. So whoever does find them must be quite fortunate indeed – in which case good luck comes full circle.
