Hi Reg,

Here's a PzIV on the Golan Heights in about '73. The other one is in an Israeli museum, captured as war booty, note the Syrian Sturmgeschutz III behind it.

Regards, Ned.

P.S. Note the original Balkenkreuz showing through the faded paint on the last pic!

on the golan heights there are still some t34 laying around. most likely as decoy targets. btw is it possible to fire the gun of a t34 manually without starting the engine and electricity supply?

The gun on T-34 is fully mechanical, and you can shot just with the turret and without the tank itself

The Syrians had been running PzIV since the end of WWII, they purchased alot of the scrap PzIV's from Normandy from the French scrap dealers, a good quality reliable tank. Makes you wonder what would have happened had the Germans just maxed the production of PzIV's as oposed to the many different tank designs from 43 to 45??
