Just found the paint scheme for my new PzIII in a post here on the forum and it's from the Battle of Kursk. The post was actually about King Tiger camo, but it had a bonus in the PzIII info.

Ya know, stuff like this is why I always let wiki take the three bucks from my paypal account when they do their annual fund thingie. I'm a cheap buzzard and don't contribute much, but those guys are a great source of info.

Thanks for the link Max - in it I came across this video about Citadel and WWII tank production. We hear lots about German tanks being complex to maintain, but if you skip to 25 mins in there is a great breakdown of manufacturing logic and processes and why the Russians could produce many more tanks with much less in the way of resources.
