| Not a pilot but a tank commander.... Two questions, Is it true that SS-Unterführer Kurt Knispel had a strong distaste for authority and is it also true that Hermann Bix took out a KV-1s with his 38t? Looking to buy a tank, don't know what yet, just looking for some interesting subjects.... Maybe a tank numbered 13?

| Bix is most interesting to me because of his early war encounters with the Kv-1's. It is also good to see a Heer man get some credit when the SS seems to be the center of attention all the time. I believe when Bix encountered the Kv-1 he had to shoot holes in the barrel of it to survive the encounter. |

| Here it'll be the same me think, the usual 13's, but maybe extend it to 113, 213, 313 etc. Also have a special interest for the 5th SS Division "Wiking", 11th SS Division "Nordland", 7th Panzer Division "Ghost Division" / "Phantom Division", 505th SPz. Abt., StuG Abt. 177, StuG Abt. 189, StuG Abt. 243....
