Post your German panzer, STuG photos

Panzer III in winter in the northern russia.

Thanks Akira for IDing the units of the Stugs.

[Akira Takiguchi]

Not at all Todd, thank you for sharing great images... Your #15 #16 are from StuG.Abt.201. 202 (its brother Abteilung) used similar marking at one time but these are, I believe, from 201.

Thanks again Akira!

These are all super photos! Here is a Tiger taken by PK-Sommerschuh. Unfortunately the caption is missing so I can't tell you anything more about this pic.

[Akira Takiguchi]

Wow, Sommerschuh also went to the north too! (all his photos I have seen are from the south, as you know...) It is a Tiger from Panzer-Abteilung 502!

[Todd Gylsen]

Akira, I made an error. This was taken by Unteroffizier Zwirner and not Sommerschuh. I was getting my scans all scrambled up. I just pulled the photo and noticed it was (writing on the back, caption missing) Zwirner from the LWKBK (mot) z.b.V. (whatever that unit this is, I am not certain). Sorry about the mix up, Akira.

[Akira Takiguchi]

Absolutely no problem! We enjoy all about this, do we not? Thank you as always for sharing great images!

Thanks Mario, you've made me possible to confirm another photo as from Stonne - it is from a GD album. In Stonne nearly 60 tanks from both armies were lost, and the battle costed also huge number of life (I.R.G.D. only suffered from 570 casualties). On May 16th, a Char B1 manned by captain Billote destroyed 13 tanks from Pz.Rgt.8 and two more anti-tank guns (possibly SFL from P.521 as seen in my photo, but it might be counted as a "tank").

I think it might be a good idea to move these Stonne photos in a separate thread, is it OK for you Mario?

[Todd Gylsen]

Excellent photos! Here are some more.

Another Stug.
