Kursk - Panthers in the Mud Ref: GT-K1

German Panther Ausf. D medium tanks of Panzer-Regiment 39 struggle in the mud of the Berezovyl Ravine, coming under fire from Soviet Artillery. Some tanks hit mines, while others succumbed to transmission failures and other mechanical breakdowns, creating a scene of chaos and confusion; an ignominious combat debut for the Panther.
