Re: Wreck
The reason I am posting here is because of the 2 tanks in the background. It is a famous incident where a Sherman rammed a Tiger II in the rear. The Gaurds Officer (Gorman) was decorated for it. There are a number of photos of the 2 tanks but the exact location is not quite fixed. I just was curious about the 'plane and wondered if it could add anything to what we already know. It is a touchy subject with those in love with German super-Panzers that a Sherman could do this. The present 'excuse' is that the TII accidently REVERSED into the Sherman at the very moment a German pak fired at the Sherman. This round then penetrated the TII and destroyed it. Thus German super tank was destroyed by German super pak. Obviously no Allied weapon could hurt such a magnificent machine.
