Most modellers out there, older than 45 know "Kohlenklau" Marder II because it was chosen as the box art of Tamiya Marder II kit.

It's the gun of Uffz. Helmut Kohlke, DKiG (MIA).
The image, along with the word "Kohlenklau", was of course burnt deeply inside my memory. One of the questions I asked on the ancient WWII-L mailing list (in 1990's) was about the Kohlenklau, which was responded by a knowledgable NZ friend, referring a book "NS-Deutsch".
P.561 carried "IA" symbol as a Berlin unit. Kohlke (3.Kp.)'s gun carried a triangle symbol. Other Kompanien carried different shape according to Schmitz/Thies, namely rectangle and circle.
Years after, I finally came across a P.561 album. Inside it was a circle-IA Marder II in winter camouflage. You can image how much I was pleased to acquire itAttached Files
