The hell is going on with blue dude's hat.  It's like a rogatywka on steriods.

I think it is flat on top and his head is just tilted.

I think it's a regular pilot/officer hat (one that is flat on top), but he is tilting his head and the cap edge has faded because of the colors/quality so you can't differentiate between the top part and the side part.

They seem to be all wearing funny hats, maybe it was Friday.

Munitionspanzer III from schwere Panzer-Abteilung 505. This type of vehicle would be nice to see in the game - especially in some late-ish maps (Studienka, Cobra, Totalize). Frail supply trucks remain behind the ABC-line, anyway.

Finnish ISU-152, disabled by two Soviet T-34-85 on 29.6.1944 in Portinhoikka. ISU was the leading 'tank' on the side of Börje Brotell 's "Bubi", during the Finnish counter attack.

From Erkki Käkelä's "Panssaridivisioona 1942-1944" (2017). This book has few never-seen-before photographs, even though most of the pictorial content is from SA-kuva (like always).

I need to get that book. Thank you!

EDIT: Except I cant, because just like Lärka's book, it has been sold out and they arent making reprints.
