Don't these Poles know how to drive?

Well , they do know but there was the Harley-Davidson motobike trying to force the right of way at an intersection. To avoid the collision the tank driver turned right and ditched. That's a pity he turned .. it would be a good crash-test. I'm afraid the motobike wouldn't be found as great as it is said.

Too much Zubrowka vodka

The Zubrowka vodka in 1939 rather no. I would say the champagne.

Here the attempt to pull the tank out of the ditch.

I knew the German Army recruited young men towards the end of the war but isn't that wee chap a bit young to be a tank commander?

Who knows.. a drowning man will clutch at a straw.

Here's a United States A-20 Havoc that was hit by anti-aircraft fire during a bombing run over (I think) Germany.

 

[Gnomey]

Good shots guys!

Here's another picture I just found. A Russian sniper with I believe a scoped Mosin Nagant rushing forward with a T-34 tank and a few other soldiers in a unknown location.

Not strictly meeting the criteria but I think I need this in my life

Love Spitfires and Beer?

[Leutnant]

A Sherman that, let's just say, took the brunt of the blast but DIDN'T continue on, somewhere in a countryside town, location unknown.

Japanese soldiers guarding Chinese POW's in Shanghai, China, August 30, 1937. Also, look at that amazing Japanese disallow stamp (not to be published in Japanese media, etc). Pretty cool, ay?

A Captured Fw-190G-3 No. 160067 in flight by a USAAF pilot sometime in September, 1943, in a USAAF paint scheme. (I found it pretty cool, as I have seen little captured aircraft pictures IN FLIGHT, have seen many on the ground though. Also never seen this specific paint scheme on one.)

八月二十三日 竹下部隊の手に捕虜となった支那正規兵

Not approved because not so dramatic.
Nice find.
