Great to hear from you, Andrey...I always look forward to your updates from the city on the Wolga...You're a very dedicated man to go out digging in the Russian Winter! Better luck next time, friend!

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

Hi Andrey , good to see you are still out working in the winter weather
You always have to check Wikipedia info , the s.Pz.Abt. 503 was allocated to Army Group Don but not until January 1943 and was in action near to Rostov !!

oops ...
long ago I read that Tigers arrived at the station Kotelnikovo. but Tigers broke and Tigers were returned to Rostov ...
maybe I'm wrong
First time where the tigers tested on a real battle was on Leningrad front. Winter 1943.
