Lugers in Movies-der Phoney Baloney

I read somewhere that the German tanks in "Battle of the Bulge" were Korean War vintage American tanks. Considering the rarity of original German King Tigers, this is not surprising. It's hard to be critical of Hollywood when the originals no longer exist!

"A Bridge Too Far" has many authentic German vehicles, including a Panzer that was borrowed from a museum.

I still wonder when MGM is going to release WED on DVD.
