Thumbnail image: Pz.4 and Tiger wrecks at Hunt's Gap

Description

This is wreckage at the "Panzer graveyard" following the battle of Hunt's Gap. From the front to back, we have: a Tiger's track, a torsion bar, the rear wall of a Tiger, the ball-bearing race of a Tiger, and a Panzer IV. Two Tigers were demolished here, and the wreckage was bulldozed off the road; this material is probably from Tiger 811. Behind the Pz.4 are the remains of two more Tigers, with Tiger 141 visible at the left, near another Pz.4. At right, in the distance, the torsion bars and the turret shell belong to Tiger 843.
