Tiger II, Power on the Prowl

[Erich]

from an earlier page showing the W-SS Schwere Panzer Abt. 503, the CO next to Herzig is RK winner and ace Karl Brommann and in this case..........well nothing needs to be said, so 66 Soviet tanks to destruction under his belt or so the unit history states so

And here is the back end of a King, alos in Budapest....



As you can see, this one was "colorized" by someone, notice the color of the tank, compared to the outer part of the pic, the town.


This one has me a bit puzzled, I bet a regular post-war paint job maybe, or would it be computer colorized, no idea but it looks interesting.



Cheers

Tom

Steve, would you know if this was the one that was abandoned due to transmission failure, and then turned into a display in the area?

As far as im aware they were two seperate tiger 2's. The tiger two that is displayed in La Gleize actaully had half the barrel shot or splintered off

A freeze frame of the same column turning the same corner



The corner in Tondorf as it appears today

I think this might be another shot from that same column...
