THE BIG CAT, PRACTICING HER HUNTING SKILLS:
Tiger 222 of s.SS.PzAbt.101, 2nd Kompanie
1st Panzer, France. Commander in photograph could be Kurt Sowa, who lost an arm in combat.
schwere Panzer Abteilung lost 107 Tigers and
destroyed 500 Allied vehicles. The number of Tigers lost, probably include tanks that were
sent back for heavy repair, or sent to another unit, tanks written-off that's why totals are higher that's my guess.
