Caption states ~ "Panther crew members pose in front of their tank, which they have parked precariously on top of a rock".
Date & location of pic not stated.

Wonder what the commanding officer thought, may be good for some AA work!

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Probably not really all that precarious. Easy on, easy off the back side.

Nice photo. I would have guessed somewhere in North Africa but that is well before these entered service.

I'm thinking eastern front near the Caucasus mountains.

Pilots aren't the only service members taking "Hero" shots.

Ah! the good old RAF types always having the rivalry with those attached to terra firma as old as Methuselah this one, on a serious note deep down I think the fly boys respected their earth bound brethren and vice versa but well rivalry in sport is a healthy thing is it not
