Description

The Model 1916-1936 M38 field kitchen, known to the troops as Marion, was designed to serve around 200 soldiers near the battlefield. Truck towed and wood fuelled, the M38 field kitchen is the result of successive improvements of the earlier horse-drawn field kitchen Mle 1916.

An update to the design in 1936 added a number of changes to the trailer; most notably new steel wheels with inflatable tyres to replace the wooden wheels, a new coupling system and a retractable chimney. In 1938, some minor internal changes were made.

3056 units of the Mle 1916, Mle 1916-1936 and M38 field kitchens were in the French army before the war. As the army mobilised an order for 2500 units plus 500 per month was made but the various manufacturers would never reach this level of production, delivering only 373 M38 before the armistice.

The production of the M38 continued after the armistice to supply the German army. Many of these would subsequently fall into the hands of the US and Free French, who made good use of them. It would continue to see service after 1945, with an updated gasoline fired version put into production in the 1950s. Cpt. Bocquier made our Marion.
