yes I agree and the problem with holding back an offence that want's to charge into the enemy, plus the problem of even identifying friend from foe at a 1000 feet was always a problem, especailly with all the smoke lingering low through the fields.
Think U will find for the first ops that the LAH Panthers and Pz.IV's were quite effective and the 101 SS was not that effective in comparision to other Tiger 1 units in Normandie. Can't say I have heard much about LAH's stug abteilung either through the whole conflict.
