I do not have a Ket trailer... However, there is one in the Chateau de
Creuilly (between Caen and Arromanches) complete with Ket.

As far as I know, Littlefield Ket is towing a 3.7 cm. PAK gun, not a
trailer. Unfortunately all the pictures (the two in the Chateau de
Creuilly and the two from the Littlefield private Museum/collection are no
longer on the web, I have just checked it...). Also the Bovington Tank
Museum Ket does not have any trailer nor gun towed.
There is a book (translated from German) in the Schiffer Catalogue: "German
Military Trailers and Towed Equipment in WWII": Sorry, I do not have this
book, but, perhaps, it may have some interesting info.
