The beginning is utterly terrifying. Ominous music plays as a Marder passes by in parade formation. The crew stare into the camera with blurry faces, their eyes dark holes.
Cool footage. I liked that you ended with shots of abandoned Marders that had been captured by the Allies.

[@PanzerPicture]

Thank you for your comment

[@l337pwnage]

That's an easy fix, mute audio an play "Erika" in the background.

[@clouddog2393]

Excellent footage . Thanks for posting .

[@haomaruinuki8935]

1:10 i thought that guy was cleaning the tank but its painting the vehicle.

[@animenut69]

Been wondering would it be possible to do a documentary of the guys that repaired vehicles like these. With all the varieties of armored vehicles Germany had it would of been a monumental task of it's own keeping them going.

[@PanzerPicture]

animenut69 do you mean the people that restore it now or the engineers repairing them then.

[@animenut69]

The repair engineers back then. People see the vehicles working but not the guys working in the heat or cold keeping them up and running. Seems like overall they tend to be a forgotten aspect of a military force.

[@PanzerPicture]

Not really a lot of footage of these guys that I have found. But maybe sometime in the future I will do a video about this topic.

[@dongilleo9743]

animenut69 Most of these images were probably filmed by military photographers for inclusion in part in newsreels as propaganda and morale building for civilians back home. That is why they tend to be more 'action shot' oriented. Some poor mechanic, trying to repair planes and vehicles, working in an unheated shack or even out in the open, with his fingers nearly frozen, doesn't make for exciting film. Almost everything I have read mentions the difficulty the Germans had in maintaining the various multitudes of different models of combat and non combat vehicles, both German produced and foreign 'borrowed', that they used. Even with German made vehicles, there was such a great need for tanks, for instance, that production emphasis was on building fully complete new tanks, rather than spare parts needed for broken down tanks way out on the front lines.

[@animenut69]

Yeah sadly your right. Mechanics the ignored heroes, would be a great book on the various ways mechanics / tank crews used their ingenuity keeping vehicles going an extra mile in the field.

[@crazymodelgarage6438]

Very good, thanks

[@PanzerPicture]

Glad you like it Grazy model garage.

[@terok1711]

The main Marder series had the Sd.Kfz. number 138. The 139 was only the Marder II based on Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. D/E armed with captured Russian guns in calibre 7,62 mm.

[@powergym4925]

can you get the gepard / german aaa's footage?

[@PanzerPicture]

There is not much of Gepard and Flaktank footage, In only saw a handfull of footage of these tanks ever.

[@Flyinghigh888]

Nice footage but the music was annoying!

[@MegaBloggs1]

get hit by a 76 and your dead-way too high and under armoured for a tank jager-low crew survivability rates-the later versions improved these failings but still inadequate

[@andreashei9319]

How mutch could the marder 2's gun penetrate?

[@repicmi]

almost 100mm to a 90 degrees angle

[@jduff59]

[@gerharddeunk2097]

Germany's army full of handsome guys with handsome equipments
