Panzer Kpfw VI
-
The first Tiger destroyed, by another tank, was by a Churchill of the North Irish Horse on 27.2.43 at a range of 500/600 yards. A second, hit on her port side, was abandoned by her crew and later blown up by the RE.
The photographs above are of Tiger 131, Pz.Abt.504, put out of action by a Churchill of 48th RTR in Tunisia on 21.4.43.
A North Irish Horse representative can just be seen on the extreme right of the group on her starboard side.
