Thumbnail image: Tiger 131 and Djebel Bou Mous

Description

Tiger 131 is in "Red Cap Alley", a secluded area near Medjez el Bab where the British forces are keeping tanks damaged in battle. Three Churchill tanks can be seen in this photo. Ahead of the Tiger is the highest peak of Djebel Bou Mous.

The tank is missing its jack. The track toolbox is not in its tray at the left side, but seems to be lying open on the ground to the right of the Tiger. There are visible instances of battle damage, including the shattered loader's hatch. The British will later replace this with one from another Tiger.
