Photos of SS Artillerie Regt Totenkopf 1941 !!
Most photos show burials of Killed in action but the one showing the Sturmbannfuhrer next to the Sturmgeschutz is believed to show the later DKiG Winner SS Sturmbannfuhrer Martin Stange who at this time was commanding the II Abt Totenkopf Artillerie Regiment

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

Nice Photos, Esp like the Sturmgeschutz shot--possibly Knocked out) ? Mr Martin looks to have a warm welcome with his grenade in hand.

Is that not a knocked out Russian KV-1 in both shots?

Good spot Tud i have been concentrating that much on identifying Stange that i hadn't looked properly at the AFV , it looks like the back end of the same KV1 with the photo taken from the opposite direction with the wooden fence now on the background !!!

I am confused as it looks to me as if "Stange" is wearing runes on his collar.
Are ther any other photos that confirm this as TK and if so, are there any other pictures of the Sturmgeshutz?
