Thumbnail image: Tiger 131 gets a new wheel

Description

This is Tiger 131 in British hands, sitting in "Red Cap Alley". It has not moved since an earlier photo was taken; witness the background and the angle of the tank's sprocket wheel. But since the earlier photo, the British technicians have added a road wheel at the front position, where the tank's crew omitted one. This wheel must have come from another African Tiger.

Other things have changed since the earlier photo. There is now barbed wire around the Tiger. A captured Kettenkrad stands nearby, and there are many more vehicles in the distance.

The photo research was largely the work of the old TIIF.DE team.
