Defence of the Reichstag, Berlin 1st May
1945 by David Pentland On the 30th April, Untersharfuhrer Georg Diers and his crew of tank
314, were ordered to take up a defensive position at the Reichstag
buildings. This was one of only two remaining King Tigers belonging to
Heavy SS Tank Battalion 503 in Berlin. By that evening they had knocked
out about 30 T34's, and the following day led a successful counterattack
against the Kroll Opera House directly opposite the Reichstag. Their
efforts though, merely postponed the inevitable and by the end of the
day the order was given to abandon the position and prepare to break out
of Berlin. |

Prepare to Ram, Operation Goodwood, normandy, 18th July 1944 by David Pentland.
While probing forward near Cagny on the initial day of the Goodwood offensive, Lt John Gorman, a troop commander of 2nd Armoured Battalion, Irish Guards, suddenly found himself confronted by a Tiger II and three Tiger Is of the elite 503rd Heavy Tank Battalion. Supported by only one other Sherman, and aware that their 75mm guns would be ineffective against such monsters, he gave the order to his driver to ram the King tiger. Gormans tank Ballyragget succeeded in colliding with its target before the Tigers 88mm gun could be brought to bear on his Sherman, and with both tanks immobilised the crews quickly abandoned their tanks. Lt. Gorman, however, was not finished and making his way off the field, he returned shortly afterwards with a Sherman Firefly, to finish off the stricken Tiger II and one of the Tiger Is. For this action he was awarded the Military Cross, and his driver L/Cpl Baron the Military Medal.

Ardennes Offensive by Nicolas Trudgian.
As 1944 drew to a close, Hitler made his final gamble of the war, mounting a massive strike force aimed at splitting the Allies forces advancing upon Germany. His armour, supported from the air, would rip through the Ardennes to Antwerp, capture the Allied fuel supplies, and cut off all the opposing forces to the north. Hitlers commanders were dubious of the outcome but nevertheless obeyed orders, and the operation was launched on 16th December. Allied intelligence had discounted any German counter-offensive and the initial wave, comprising 8 Panzer divisions, took the Allied forces completely by surprise. A parachute drop of English-speaking German soldiers in American uniforms behind the assault zone added to the confusion. Advancing some 30 miles, and almost in sight of the River Meuse, by 26th December the SS Panzers had ground to a halt with empty fuel tanks, and were at the mercy of Allied counter-attacks. By 16th January the German penetration was repulsed and Hitlers beloved Panzer units retreated in tatters. The Fuhrers last gamble had failed. Fw190s of JG1 provide close support to the 9th SS Panzer Division, as they spearhead Germanys final major offensive of World War II. Seen advancing on the 82nd Airborne Division, the King Tiger tanks, with the aid of Luftwaffe ground-attack fighters, drive the Americans back through the snowy fields of the Ardennes on Christmas Day, 1944. It was the last, short-lived and ultimately unsuccessful advance made by the German forces during World War II.

THE BATTLE -Battle of the Bulge (or Ardennes Offensive):
Throughout December and January of 1945 Hitler's code-named plan
'Watch on the Rhine' took place. Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt was to
break through the US line at Ardennes in order to create a German
salient or 'bulge' which would isolate Allied forces at the north end of
the corridor created by the drive. The casualties were tremendous and
included Hitler's elite Panzer units. The German counteroffensive,
although pinning US troops for some weeks, eventually failed.
Three Panzer units were used in the operation, the 5th, 6th and 7th
along with a troop of English-speaking Germans in US uniforms commanded
by Otto Skorzeny. The operation began on 16th December on a 113km
section of the front line under the watch of US 1st Army and General
Bradley's 12th Army. This section of the front had been quiet in the
previous months and so the Allies were taken by surprise, and Allied air
support could not be scrambled because of poor weather conditions. These
factors allowed the German troops to advance quickly.
