  1. Sorry for the poor size of the pics, they are bigger but the size is been limited here. Do you have any picture on "Pz IV totenkopf" from kharkov feb/mars 1943. I making a diorama of the third battle and I have a Pz IV. Or if you know any turrent number on a tank from that battle. Thanks for you quick response George.

    The IV tank with "731" is totenkopf (Kampfgruppe Kunstmann) the men sitting on it refers to 3. SS-Panzer-Grenadier-Division "Totenkopf". So I maybe use that number if you dont have any better solution.

    Have anyone a name of the tank-commander of 731? I can't find any information about that commander. I also got a pic that shows tanks on a train and there are 731, 732 on that train, is it desame tank as in Kharkov? another pic shows 731 in greece? No one has the name for the commander.

    In that there are pics of "731" on the street of Kharkov.

    Here they talk about it, but no name of the commander.

    I'll take a stab at them- although they are very small images.

    Th first top shot shows a Panzer IV of the I./Pz Regt 27 of the 19th panzer Division at Starobjelsk (from Restayn Battle of Kharkov page 36). Bottom shot of same image shows same panzer followed by a Panzer III N.

    The middle shot looks to be a Panzer IV from I./7./SS-Pz.Rgt. LSSAH in Kharkov. That company was commanded by Rudolf von Ribbentrop. There is a sequence of shots in Restayn's Battle of Kharkov on page 348 and 349 that show this panzer in action.

    Cheery!
