Check out the p011078-082 series of photos. KT from the 503rd s.Pz.Abt? Doesn't look like a Porsche turret.

p011087 is the famous photo of Major Currie at St. Lambert-sur-Dives, with additional pics from that battle further down the list.

The p011194-210 series is of aerial photos of what I assume to be the aftermath of the Falaise pocket. StuGs, Mk IVs, Flak 88s and assorted transports all scattered about.

The color photos start in the 300 series.



Got this off the Battlefront Forums, may be of use to some people or even the team?

Note: Picture 8 ... showing Americans in rare dot camo uniform. Was withdrawn after Normandy as it was too simlar to the Waffen SS camo.

Those images originated from this site: Archives Normandy 1939-1945 (http://www.archivesnormandie39-45.org/)

Here's another site with oodles of photos mainly from the Eastern Front: http://www.aeronautics.ru/archive/wwii/

Those are good photo's, nice find. My grandfather got a ton of photo's from a dead German photographer in the war. I would like to scan them but their are too many. Someday, I will get around scanning the two pictures of Hitler I have.

For lovers of all things colour and panzer-like this page is from my above mentioned link:

Panzertruppe (http://www.aeronautics.ru/archive/wwii/books/panzertruppen/web_gallery/)

It includes many of the Panzer Generals.

And for those who prefer the spectrally challenged variety:
