10th Mountain Division in Italy, 1945.
Spoiler
Trivia-bit: The Div moved to Udine on 20 May and joined the British 8th Army to prevent further westward movement of ground forces from the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

StuG III Ausf. F/8 (9-10.42 prod.) likely from Luftwaffen Feld-Division. Note the loader's makeshift MG15 mount.

One of two Panzerjäger Renault R35(f) left behind close to Wijbosch, September 1944. Needless to say, the 506th Regiment Command post and Colonel Sink were not very impressed by it.

Indeed, but I guess with those Jagdpanthers roaming in the nearby area... It's still pretty impressive that they captured this vehicle fully operational; many 'veterans' broke down during the road march. 20 km/h max. speed was rather gentle tho  8)





Close to Seelow Heights. Tiger has an early chassis and what seems like a pre-1943 turret with a loader's MP port.
