Well done Von Poop. I find this most interesting. Don't you just wish a WW2 aircraft could be found like this?

von Poop · 23-10-2006, 12:58 AM

More Russian Battlefield relics.
Click on the button 'haxodku' for some more surprising stuff still lying on the surface.

Or this:
Stug Of the dump.
Sadly the follow-up story according to wheels and tracks is that this Stug, recovered a fair while back complete down to many of it's tools was parked up in a nearby town waiting for the bureaucracyto be sorted and was picked clean of all it's external fittings.

von Poop · 11-11-2006, 12:59 AM

Someone please tell me that camo scheme on the Panther is original, cos it looks bloody awful.
Did the Germans really let the crews do their own paint jobs?
