I've seen this pic before.
I think it is the tanker's own pistol. |

Late war photo, as evidenced by the last issue Soviet helmet of the war. Also rare to see Soviets with cammo netting and foilage on their helmets.

Gott mit Uns.
I'll post some pics of my Father in law, deceased in 1944. 17th Pioneer Battlion (?). Soldiers all and I am proud to have been (in my body and soul, still am) a Soldier, warrior, patriot. Lord please forgive us all for doing our duty. I agree that the P08 was the tankers. Where would any of us be today, without the horror of defending our country, society and family? Reality. |
