Back to CrazyD's original posting - Hummel started out with 14 x Tiger 1s.

Definitely only 1 Tiger II ( 'King Tiger' ) was lost in Oosterbeek. This was the much-photographed machine disabled in Weverstraat and seen in the film 'Theirs Is The Glory'. When you visit the area today, it's unbelievable how the crew even managed to drive such a gigantic vehicle down this very narrow suburban lane....
