    Dude, that tank is impressive. Seeing how little damage the Sherman’s caused must of been terrifying for the Sherman crews.

      Its mindblowing when you stand in front of the tank yourself! All the damage is peanuts for the KT.

    Fantastic story! A bottle of Cognac for a tank! Thank you for sharing this.

      Crazy right? I would trade 1000+ bottles of Cognac for a King Tiger today

    Hey Sander , another outstanding short for our delectation my friend. I’ve heard that a local Ardennes farmer has the barrel of a Tiger tank in his barn . The problem is it’s the main support ( standing upright) for his barn roof and he is not interested in any offer of money to part with it . He doesn’t care about the 88 barrels history he just doesn’t want the barn falling down. Take care buddy and well done that man

    us germans wouldve had been more dangerous if we had more oil and actually gas to get around better, we lost 100+ tanks bc no gas
