Great photos as usual. You can almost see in the body language, even from behind, that these soldiers are war-weary and defeated.

An SdKfz. 223 Funk with unusual identification markings

Anyone who is an armor photo junkie like myself owe thanks to guys like those in the above photograph. These men were members of Panzer-Propaganda-Kompanie 697. Their job was to photograph Panzers and crews in action and catalog destroyed or captured enemy equipment.

Awesome pic! I didn't know those antennas folded like that! The shot is probably front late 1941 or early 1942 Ost front. I don't see any divisional markings but that is undoubtedly a unit from Army Group Center.
