I'm always fascinated by the Jagdtiger ; a near-mythical beast !


PS : this one's NOT at Arnhem !
No, that one isn't. That is X3 of Kompanie Ernst or, 1/512 of Jgpz Abt 512 in the Ruhr pocket were it was abandoned after breaking down. Lt. Ernst was the only command in the Ruhr pocket to formally surrender at Iserholm. I have several really good photos of his JadgTigers wheeling into the town square and the subsequent mustering of the unit to surrender.
