@ Colin;
1) Please note that only the color-pic is in the archive of "Getty Images". The b/w pic has a complete different source and the overlay has been made by somebody in the "other forum" but has nothing to with "Getty Images"
2) The German expressions in the description of the picture have a simple reason: Since my mother-language is German, I have switched to "German" on the "Getty Images"-site. This shall not lead to the conclusion that the photographer was German as well.
3) Your question, how German vehicles could come accross an abandoned Italian vehicle or how the US-correspondent comes in the position to take pictures of such vehicles confuses me. Would like to ask, if you are aware about the Desert Campaign or in particular about the sequences and the movement in Tunisia in late 1942 and early 1943?
4) Please note that in most of the areas the (European) winter is the time where the country is really green.
5) I cannot judge, if Journalists are idiots or not. Presume that the percentage is about similar to the idiots amongst other professions.

Can we conclude that we do not really come closer to solve the "miracle"? The only possiblity would be that somebody has to go to that particular place and identify the actual situation...
