Thumbnail image: Tiger S11 in the field

Description

German troops and a Tiger tank are near "dachas" in the summer of 1943. This is said to be Operation Citadel. The Tiger is "S11" of the heavy company of the Das Reich division, a veteran of the Battle of Kharkiv.

There is another photo of Tiger S11 on this spot. A photo of "821" from the previous winter has side skirts whose distortion matches those of "S11", suggesting that the hull, if not the turret, is the same one.

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