Sgt. Schultz Posted August 13, 2002 Author Share Posted August 13, 2002 Jwerry got it right. [g] That is a pic of the future namesake of the US's present main battle tank. He helped pull Bastognes defenders' butts out of the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kump Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 That is a Marder III-r. Its not in history books because it was rarely seen or captured. Its a result of the late Russian war where the idea was to shoot and run. Problem was the crew rarely stopped to shoot again. I think the 'r' designation was a reference to "retreat". Not many of them built due to the initial field study of the "gunning and running" tactic delivering less than favorable results. Just a guess.

Nidan1 Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Is is the SDkfZ253 Schnappswagen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 That is clearly a Sonderkampffingerpokenwagen. Extremely rare. Produced in a special factory in the Schwartzwald by elves. You will note that in this picture the front end is levitating above the ground. This was enabled by a special secret technology known only to the elves. Unfortunately, production ceased after this test example (WkNr 10380-A) was made when an out of control V-2 struck the factory killing all the elves.

Nidan1 Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Michael you are good, I missed the little pointy elf hat poking out from the driver's seat. I understand that the elves were the only ones who could drive the vehicle due to its propulsion mechanisms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Weiss Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 I believe the official designation was indeed Marder, but with a backwards r. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
