Hey, where did you take this? So rare photos.


I collected a large collection of photographs of Soviet Airborne Forces in World War II and read (and saved) a bunch of books on the subject related to the Airborne Forces (parachute containers, aircraft transports, gliders, etc.). For several years I have been browsing the sites of the Ministry of Defense, the sites of memory of the dead soldiers, and any sites dedicated to the Airborne Force, read many memories of living veterans of the Airborne Forces of the Second World War.

Here are some more rare photos of the 214th Airborne Brigade of the 4th Airborne Corps during the Vyazma Airborne Operation of 1942.

Belorussia 1944, operation "Bagration". Anyone could say what write on side armor? Possibly this tank was abandoned and destroyed by crew when fuel exhausted or mechanical dysfunction.

Operation "Bagration"

I cant read all of the text but the first line is:
"Achtung! Ladung zu breit! ..."
Danger! Cargo is too wide/ Wide cargo.

So it seems to me that it is a railroad cargo marking for the german rail transport.
I think it is a new tank that was transported to the front from the factory without any delay.
