Oh, that's the one the british captured in africa and then was restores to the Tank Museum in Bovington. If I ever travel to UK that's the first place I'm going to visit.

If I remember correctly I read some time ago in a book about the Panzer III (published by Osprey Military, in case anyone is interested) that before starting the engine two men had to turn a crank conected to the engine until it reached 60 RPM. Then they could turn it on.

I don't know whether Brits today are a 'bit' shorter than Germans back then or

I have a bad size scale of a Tiger tank.
