Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

A shot from a Wiking Panzer Regt album belonging to a good friend of mine , the shot is taken east of Warsaw in July 1944 and shows SS Untersturmfuhrer Neven du Mont in the commanders cupola of his command Panther , he was the commander of 5 Kompanie . Neven du Mont was KIA shortly after this photo was taken when he was decapitated in the cupola by a Russian anti tank round !!

Photo of an Early version Sturmgeschutz from Sturmgeschutz Abt 203 showing an early version of the Elephant unit insignia. The photo was taken on or around the 11th July 1941 west of Smolensk.

Awesome photos Paul! I still have yet to find a photo of StuG Abt 203 vehicles in action. Got a couple portraits, thats all.
The Wiking Panther shot of Neven du Mont is incredible too. So I'm assuming he was actually killed in the "501" shown in the pic, right?
