The Combat History of German Tiger Tank Battalion 503 in World War II by Franz-Wilhelm Lochmann
This book tells--with firsthand accounts as well as numerous, never-before-seen photographs--the combat history of German Tiger Tank Battalion 503, the senior Tiger battalion of the German Army, equipped with both the Tiger I and the King Tiger. The unit saw action in the attempted relief of Stalingrad, the tremendous tank engagements at Kursk, and the bitter fighting to relieve German units encircled at the Tscherkassy Pocket. It then defended against the Allies in Normandy in 1944, and ended the war with desperate fighting in Hungary and Austria.
If you want to know what it was like inside a Tiger, then this is the book to read, because these were the men who were there* Gun Mart *
The authors are all veterans of German Tiger Tank Battalion 503 and live in Germany.
