4th Panzer Defends Kromny late 1943.

A Company from the 171st Grenadier Regt, 56th Infantry Division is supporting a battery of 88mm flak guns from the 4th Panzer Div. on the outskirts of Kromny late Oct 1943.

Finally got around to working on and taking pictures of my 1/72 scale German Army. I started the 1st SS Panzer Division about 10 years ago and have had several games with them but never got around to taking pictures. To start with it is a fair size unit and is equivalent to about two panzer companies and two panzer grenadier companies with support. The weapons range over 1943 to late 1944 to allow for different battles.
