Interesting Panther
Never seen the jack block on the side of the turret before, a lot of detail on this one including a milk jug

Re: Interesting Panther
If You meant the left side of the turret, then for my eyes it's just a wooden box not a jack block... 
Re: Interesting Panther
Agreed , it looks like a box of rations or some such.
Don't get your panties in a bunch , we still got hand weapons and the fifty!
Re: Interesting Panther
Wow, still a nice find. That is a A?
Kanister on the back , and lots of stuff on the turret. Nice :thumb up:

Re: Interesting Panther
Also to note that this is a command tank (Panzerbefehlswagen) as it has the additional antenna base on the rear deck.

Re: Interesting Panther
Hey Mick,
I was going to ask about the " What are the three upside-down stools on the back? " but then thought i must be seeing the picture wrong, they can't possibly be stools.
Maybe they're for sitting on when milking a cow !
Cheers
Steve

For real? Unless my high school German fails me, Hauptmann Pfannküche is literally "Captain Pancake".Jake79 wrote:Panther Ausf A coded 96 of Hptm Pfannkuche's II battalion 33rd Panzer Regiment 9th Panzer Division ; Normandy August 1944.
Re: Interesting Panther
It depends what the correct writing is.
If it is Pfannküche, it would be pan-kitchen, maybe derived from a cooks family
If it was PfannküchLe. Then it would be pan-cake most likely. Funny names are not limited to a particular nation though
