Historical Background:
The AmphPiBtl 230 was one of the few Bundeswehr units trained for operations on and across water. Based at Minden,
it operated M3 amphibious rigs, floating bridges, and tactical ferries. The 3rd Company played a critical role in securing
mobility for land forces across rivers and difficult terrain. Its turtle emblem symbolizes methodical movement, stability,
and protection – ideal traits for demanding amphibious engineering missions. The unit was gradually disbanded or
restructured during Bundeswehr reforms after 2003.
