                  This may or not be the same tank but if you go to the 82nd airborne homepage there is a picture of GI's firing Bazooka & Panzerfaust rounds at a captured King tiger in la Gleize. Kinda cool if ya ask me! here is the link http://www.army.mil/cmh-pg/matrix/82...ABD-Photos.htm

                    Hi Chad,

                    Thanks for posting the 82d link. This wasn't the same tank as 213, but it was another King Tiger of s. SS-Pz.Abt. 501 abandoned in La Gleize. Here's a closeup of what it looked like after the 82d recon platoon troopers were done shooting the bazookas at it (photo from the December 1944 Museum, La Gleize).

                    Regards,
                    Greg

                      I once flew in a B-17, B-24, & a B-25. Next, I want to fire an 88 round.
