Great look into history from a personal perspective - thank you for sharing them with us!
Thank you for sharing. If you could, could you put-up a blown-up image of the first German tank? Pretty sure that was a King Tiger Porsche, and it's neat seeing one like that. Not many were fielded, and that he saw one of them and got a picture is impressive.
Photo set of Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf. B with Porsche turret (tactical number: 11) Funklenk-Panzer-Kompanie 316 which was a part of Panzer-Lehr-Division during the Normandy Campaign, abandoned by its crew on Châteaudun on June 17, 1944. This vehicle, as well as five other Königstiger tanks were captured by the US Army soldiers. The wrecks were finally collected in the beginning of fifties. The unusual but characteristic for this unit tactical number is clearly visible. [Kagero Archive]
