Panzer III n.A. - 1942?

Pz.III n.A. on a flatcar. Two of this rare tank with experimental running gear are seen. These tanks were used in shooting a propaganda movie (the most recent Waffen-Arsenal Pz.III book has several photos from this grouping, including this very picture. How I wish they could have been able to reproduce the photos in better quality!).

Rex, the Shepherd - 1942

From the photo album of Unteroffizier Friedrich Rudolph as shown in the book by H. Riebenstahl, Deutsche Pioniere im Einsatz 1935-1945 Eine Chronik in Bildern. He was a troop leader in Pionier-Horch-Zug 2 (platoon leader: Oblt. Oster), which operated in Rostov, Sevastopol and Krasnodar. The platoon had a German Shepherd named Rex. Photos describe Rex attacking the signboard, with platoon members, and a good portrait.
