Looks like the Eastern Germany tanks for the children which they used on parades.

Low flying C-47 transport planes roar overhead as they carry supplies to the besieged American Forces battling the Germans at Bastogne, during the enemy breakthrough on January 6, 1945 in Belgium


Flak bursts through the vapor trails from B-17 flying fortresses of the 15th air force during the attack on the rail yards at Graz, Austria, on March 3, 1945.


This combination of three photographs shows the reaction of a 16-year old German soldier after he was captured by U.S. forces, at an unknown location in Germany, in 1945.

From this URL, it has some really interesting photos:

Is that me, or the angle of the picture, but the gun seems pretty small for an 8.8/71  ?  By looking at the lenght of the gun it looks more like a 8.8/56

The caption when I saved that photo (and the url) says it's a King Tiger with a Panther's gun, but it looks more like a Panzer IV's gun to me.
