Description
A Tiger of the "Das Reich" division, its turret removed, rests in a repair yard. German soldiers stand around the large opening in the hull roof, perhaps being instructed about the tank's workings. At the lower rear of the tank, an access panel is missing.
This hull is obviously the same one in another photo of this scene; the Feifel filters lying on the ground serve to confirm that. The location is a field workshop; there are several Tigers parked nearby. And the unique camouflage pattern on the side wall allows us to identify this Tiger in a photo of its eventual end in battle.
