        AV59255/ Flak is in expectation of enemy tanks.
        With the offensive in the West, the German Flak batteries have repeatedly proven their versatility. Repeatedly the Flak gun has achieved prominence in the ground battle and in particular fighting enemy tanks. Our picture shows a German Flak gun in the forest in expectation of enemy tanks.

                        I will try and make some then and now pictures of the Ham and Löwen picture, as both cities are not too far from my hometown. What the Germans call Löwen is known to the Dutch-speaking people as Leuven.

                        Regards,
                        Vincent S.

                          Vincent,

                          That would be great if you were able to produce some then and now pictures. I am looking forward to the pics.
