Seized from a villa in the small town of Heikendorf near Kiel was a collection that any military museum would go gaga over. Among the items secured was a Panzerkampfwagen V Panther tank, a torpedo and an 88mm Flugzeugabwehrkanone (aircraft-defense cannon).

Too bad it didnt have tracks…but the 75 looks intact

There are only about 50~ Panthers left in the world. Well, 51 now…
