Description
We cannot see any identifying marks on this Tiger, thanks to a fire that left the turret covered in soot. But the cutout in the turret bin implies that it belongs to the "Das Reich" 8 company. The fact that it's whitewashed tells us that it was destroyed before April 1943, when the company repainted its Tigers. The location is not urban. Only one Tiger loss in the company's journal corresponds to what we see; it happened on 1 March 1943 in battles between Merefa and Kharkiv.
The Tiger can be identified as "842", but only because every other Tiger of the company has been accounted for.
There is another photo of this burnt out Tiger.
