Thumbnail image: M3 halftrack and Tiger turret wrecked

Description

The battle of Hunt's Gap left a "Panzer Graveyard" of deliberately wrecked vehicles that the retreating Germans could not recover. This M3 self-propelled gun was in German service, captured earlier from American forces. Across the road is the turret armour shell of Tiger 843. This Tiger's radiator and a portion of its snorkel can be seen at bottom right of the photo.
