The dragon on the bow of the Jagdtiger and the Fox head on the rear of the Tiger.
I posted the original Tiger photo just to get more info on the Unit badges and not the Tiger.

Whilst I am quite happy to provide more information the tone of certain posters is troubling.

You should be telling us what you know without having the information pried from you, so don't try 'going down the high road' by complaining about my tone. Frankly, I don't understand is this 'cat and mouse' game you are playing by keeping whatever information you purport to know from us. Your argument is that German armour left on the battlefield had unit badges painted on them. You apparently want members of this forum to help you out, but all you seem able to provide are grainy images lifted from from who knows where with little to no information on the images. In the case of the last two photographs you posted, all you did was post them with the comment 'I think capturing Unit badge is the most likely'. Here is a piece of advice, take a page out of Jakko's book, show a bit professionalism and at least take the time to circle what you are talking about.

I explained my reason for posting earlier. It was to ask if the 'X' could be a Unit badge.
That and nothing else.
I know all about the Tiger and its location.
There is no 'argument' that Unit badges were painted on captured vehicles as that is an established fact.

See :

as an example where, instead of carping, everyone chips in to build up the bigger picture and no one starts complaining because they failed to notice the markings on the grainy images lifted from from who knows where with little to no information on the images I provided.

As for your advice well all I can say I need no lessons from you about my research methods:

As a parting gift another grainy image lifted from from who knows where but I will add a little detail for you. Its the the 12th SS attack on Authie on 7.6.44 actually in progress. Note the Pz IVs moving to skirt around Authie. I am working on an update of my previous post about 12th SS v The Sherbrookes at Authie to link the air recce pics of the German vehicles moving on St Contest and Buron with the newsreel footage. Perhaps it would be better received on Missing Lynx.

If there ever was a time to update the emogi’s, this thread sure could use an eating popcorn one.


Guys, times to chill a bit and get back to what the MLU Forum is all about. Helping each other out with regards to Canadian Second World War themed topics.

hang in brother

The aerial image at Authie is delightful. The German war diaries of that period comment on the advantage the spotter aircraft may have provided.
