Just to note......

I see you are from Canada - and it is noteworthy that it was primarily the Canadians who were embroiled with the 12th SS. Apparently - they learned to dispise each other to the point that: "The Canadians especially had a deep hatred for the young men of the 12th SS and there sometimes developed a situation quite similar to the Eastern Front where no quarter was given or expected by POWs from both sides..." (See source as link above).

Can you tell us the unit of the gentleman who captured this piece was in?

OUTSTANDING pictures!!!!!
