Panthers of 2nd Battalion 23rd Panzer Regiment, Heavy Tank Regiment Bake led by captured T34s race to capture a vital bridge at Frankowka across the Gniloi Tilitsch. The daring coup de main was successful bringing the relief column one step closer to the besieged pocket at Tscherkassy.

Race to Frankowka, Ukraine, 10th February 1944 by David Pentland. 		Among those encircled in the pocket were the men and guns of Sturmgeschutz Brigade 301. During the breakout, through two Soviet Tank Armies and across four rivers the Sturmgeschutz cleared the way for the infantry and others to pass through. Special mention was given to the heroic actions of Hauptmann Sekirka, the brigade commander, and Wachtmeister Walter Feibig. By the time 1st Panzer Armee had reached German lines Feibig had a personal tally of over 50 tanks destroyed.

Hubes Pocket, Kamenez-Podolsk, Russia, 26th March - 6th April, 1944 by David Pentland.		 A Soviet attack with 18 Sherman tanks and infantry on Hill 42 was halted by a few Stug IVs of Leutnant Heinrich Kohlers 3rd Battery 210 Stumgeschutz Abteilung. Within a matter of minutes 15 enemy tanks were destroyed, 6 by Kohler himself.

Fight for Hill 42, East Prussia, 15th March 1945 by David Pentland. 		In early 1945 Obersturmfuhrer Walter Girg was given command of a small unit of SS commandos whose task was to operate Russian tanks behind enemy lines. One such mission took him to the area of the enemy-encircled Kolberg garrison. The German forces there however believed Girg and his men to be Seydlitz agents (German soldiers working for the Soviet forces) and they were taken to be shot. Luckily the mistake was discovered a short time later and Girg remained in Kolberg until 18 March 1945 when the garrison was evacuated by sea.

Jagdverbande Mitte, Pomerania, Germany, March 1945 by David Pentland.
