Not a pilot but a tank commander....

[Lucky13]

Two questions,

Is it true that SS-Unterführer Kurt Knispel had a strong distaste for authority and is it also true that Hermann Bix took out a KV-1s with his 38t?

Looking to buy a tank, don't know what yet, just looking for some interesting subjects....

Maybe a tank numbered 13?

Ernst Barkmann was one hell of a commander as well Jan....

 

[Lucky13]

Barkmann's Corner...

Will keep a look out for a "13" Jan...

Nice one Wayne.

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks fellas,

....found a couple of King Tiger 13's Jan! 213 and 313

 

[Lucky13]

What a beaut Wayne! And thanks! I have a Jagdtiger, Jagdpanther (I think), a Tiger I and a Stug III somewhere, might be down where I store my stuff...

Bix is most interesting to me because of his early war encounters with the Kv-1's. It is also good to see a Heer man get some credit when the SS seems to be the center of attention all the time. I believe when Bix encountered the Kv-1 he had to shoot holes in the barrel of it to survive the encounter.

Well, this was a surprise, I didn't know that I had these....only the M10 and M36!

Would someone of the mods please resize the pics please...

BTW, I also found that I have a 1/48 vacuum Lagg-3 TB, BT or what they're called...

 

[Lucky13]

Here it'll be the same me think, the usual 13's, but maybe extend it to 113, 213, 313 etc. Also have a special interest for the 5th SS Division "Wiking", 11th SS Division "Nordland", 7th Panzer Division "Ghost Division" / "Phantom Division", 505th SPz. Abt., StuG Abt. 177, StuG Abt. 189, StuG Abt. 243....

Done.....

 

[Lucky13]

Thanks Wojtek! They were slightly on the large side, weren't they?

 

[Wurger]

Any time Buddy... And it is true these were on.I could see the barrel tip and one wheel with a part of a track. Initially I thought it was my glasses fault.

 

[Lucky13]

Lmfao! Funny Wojtek! When I first saw them, I almost fell of my chair!

 

[Wurger]

Felling of the chair....hum with a glass of beer or without?

 

[Lucky13]

Without.....

 

[Wurger]

Uff....

 

[Lucky13]

I'd be crying if I had lost a beer in the fall....

 

[Wurger]

Me too. I have to check if there is still a few bottles in my fridge.
