    Looks like Bovington Camp warmed up their Tiger and made it a star again (unsurprisingly an anti-war flick)

    Edit: It's a JS-II doctored to look like a Tiger. Ther prop dept. somehow put bigger, overlapping road wheels on it but didn't cut off the return rollers that the JS-II has. Tracks are too narrow and wrong style. Go to 130 when the Tiger fire and you can see the return rollers.

    A Tiger is sent on a mission to rescue an officer who is behind lines ala Saving Gefreiter Rehfeldt. BTW, Herr Leutnant's squashed hat look like the Soviet officer's cap.

    I saw this trailer, too. I noticed his cap and thought, "He'd never pass inspection." Maybe we might see it in the States someday.
