Tiger I and Panzer III
As I unpack the collection a few photo opportunities arise. Roco Panzer III.
German tanks carried two machine guns, one for the coax with the main gun and one for the bow. One of them could be dismounted and used as an anti-aircraft machine gun at the commanders hatch. American tanks had three machine guns, and the commander had a .50 caliber anti-aircraft machine gun.
Tiger I tanks. The first Tiger battalions had Panzer III to act as scout tanks and for close in security. The Tiger I was slow and very heavy, having a smaller, faster, lighter tank as part of the unit was a helpful addition.
