Stug III Radio.

**Tom Bennett** · 01-03-2009, 02:13 AM

Hi again,
I have an original Russian front Stug III Radio and rack that was recovered from the tank found upside down and full of water with crew back in 2005 and wish to share it with you.I have found out via Dimas that the original discovery location of the Stug was incorrect.I think they may have just said Demjansk to get more attention

Anyway take a look and let me know your comment's.

Hi Justin,
Thankyou for your kind comment's.I had some better shot's before i placed it in my cabinet but they are trapped in my old computer for the time being.I have had it for a few year's now and just want to share it around as i think it's a unique item.I have added the relic face plate for Sender as the original was stolen before they sold it to my contact so who know's where that part is now.
Best regard's

Tom

Thaat is the nice stuff- and you can discover the history too. I think the camera has some shots inside, and also was made some pictures which was sent to home and still alive, but you'll never recognize them before you'll see a board number and inscription like that:-" Me and my crew'

May be some good pictures still in that camera and are those dominos I see in the second picture?

Thank's Justin,
The camera has no film left inside which is a shame and i think it was removed before sale

Yes they are Dominos in the background and they were battlfield dug in Poland from trench line's.

Excellent piece Tom , a real piece of Sturmgeschutz History , any ideas on what unit the gun was from ?

regards

Paul

Not sure Paul but from the plain number's and Balkankrauez i would say it was SS and very likely Totenkopf which were active in that area of Russia.That may explain why there were no detail's released about the crew's identity also.

Thank's for the feedback mate and happy to share

Tom
