Re: German and Allied views on their "tank" brothers?

When I was a grunt, nobody was shooting at me, so my perspective may be off. I only worked with tanks a few times.

The AT weapons we had even 20 years ago were formidable. Based on my studies, I wasn't afraid of the beasts, but I sure respected them! However, I knew that if some Landser could take one out at 50m with a Panzerfaust, I wouldn't have too much trouble with the weapons we had.

As far as trading places with a Treadhead, I doubt it. They were still too easy to take out. At least my skinny little *ss could hide behind a tree, and be a smaller target!
