Great shots!!!

Notice that even though all those guys are SS there is a great variety of clothing being worn.

What I see here are five different groups gathering to make a battle plan.

From left to right:
1)The two guys in camo on the left.
2)The two guys in the leather trench coats (looks like motorcycle recon maybe)
3)The guy with his hands clasp behind his back and his buddy to the right with the funky coat. (Note the other Tiger hidden back in the trees visible between them!)
4)Then the group of three to the right.
5)The tank crew. It looks like the tank commander is sitting in the turret and is not one of the group on the ground judging by the uniforms.

I would guess the trench coat guy with the black hat and the map is in charge.

Re: Tiger I-One Tough Cat

My thoughts on this one...


...The guy sitting on the barrel looks British, so this must have been a captured of knocked out T1.

Re: Tiger I-One Tough Cat

I agree in that he does look British! Just look at the breastpocket on the uniform jacket...

Re: Tiger I-One Tough Cat

Here's some Tiger's belongin' to Tiger-Gruppe Fehrmann. Note that they're early chassies that have been upgraded with steel wheels. Noteworthy as the pics is from '45.
