Unusual WWII photo

[GeeRam]

Well, in this case this one is tinted wrong on literally basically everything.

Stars forward was definitely at least a post WWII thing, still looks strange to me personally IMHO

Yes, colourization indeed very wrong...... on just about every count.

Its a well known wartime photo, very likely its a Churchill of the 6th Guards Tank Brigade, probably taken in March 1945.

Details are much clearer in the monochrome original.

Yes they are,
Instead of looking brand new,
I can now see the wear and tear on the USGI's boots, along with the caked on mud on the soles.
Thx.
