I guess that pic is awesome..

It has.. MP40.. SS whit Heer soldiers.. MP38 or something.. Happy Russians.. Germans and Russians smiling.. and these Russian Hats  ;D




Wait until they arrive at the gathering point for the further transport to the labour camps. Uhh, forgot, no picture.

Without knowing who actually sat the caption this might be a german propaganda masterpiece. Asians like these got the hardest treatment, being considered subhuman. When these soldiers were kids, they probably had the chance to watch africans exhibited in the zoo.


A panther turret for a static emplacement like they seem to have been delivered ex works.



I usually imagine my own sounds with it, like `tjunk, tupdieyupdiedee` aaa enemy spotted, ratatatataboom

Wow, thats a really early war tank.  They must have been desperate to use that in Normandy.


On board HMS VANITY a rifle being used to throw a line to pass a message to the Commodore of the convoy. Note the sailor holding the container with the rope inside it.

P.S. I think the rifle is an MLE, can anyone confirm this?

I have a new goal, I must find things Jumjum has never heard of with each pic now.



The M28 Weasel towing soldiers of the Tenth Mountain Division on a tracked trailer in Colorado. The Studebaker Weasel was a sort of American unarmored Universal Carrier. The M-29 Variant was introduced in 1942 for the First Special Service Forces to use when raiding the German heavy water plant in Norway, and was Airdroppable. The M-29C was a modified variant with flotation cells. These were used throughout the war, in Europe, the Pacific, and Alaska.

M-29 Weasel

(Tried to find you a vehicle that was used in combat, Jummy. Sorry if you already know this one.  :P)
