A Finnish soldier with a Molotov cocktail. The Finns made good use of these improvised incendiary devices against Soviet armor.

31 rolls of film from WW2 were "rescued" and developed after the passing of the person who took the photographs. Here is a link to the story:

Seems the Germans would repurpose every possible armored vehicle. Isn't this an old Renault?

Yea that's a WW1, French Renault FT. The Germans re-used a lot of stuff, indeed.

“We were getting our second wind now and started flattening out that bulge.
We took 50,000 prisoners in December alone.”

it would be interesting to know how many german veterans units and formations were on the west front upon the arrival of the D-Day troops in Normandy and with all the newly german armies that were created by that time is even harder to know .
