Tiger S21 of the 2nd SS Panzer Division 'Das Reich', the commander and platoon leader is SS-Obersturmführer Reininghaus, the photo must have been taken around March when
Kharkov was captured.

My mistake, this photo could not have been taken before apr'43 and perhaps later as the tiger sports an 'S' prefix unit number which only came in around then, before that they began with the number 8. The commander was SS-Obersturmführer Reininghaus.
