Thank you for this great picture, Dukat! One can really see the weariness in the faces of those soldiers during this brutal battle.

Yes, I actually have a owned picture of that.

It said they were bravely attempting to remove the left track for another, while under heavy fire from Allies.

Smoke grenades that make a very irritating/poison smoke, if thrown onto a tank it had a  chance of going inside the tank through the ventilation system, if that happens the crew can choose, die or open the tank hatches and run for it. Also the crew is completely blinded due to the smoke. A very close range and last resort anti tank weapon realy, but it did give you the chance to capture a tank fully intact.
