    Captured Panther tanks used by the British. Would like to learn more about the Panthers. Here is the story of Cuckoo.

    Nice. Brave guys to be driving around in a Panther even if if was wearing allied markings, especially when it was white washed. Allied fighter bombers would be a big worry.

    Surprised it stayed running for five months.

    Something new on this topic (I hope!). Picture of Geijsteren Castle taken by me on a visit 3 or 4 years ago. Not much left of it. DSCF3787.JPG

    There's film footage of "Cuckoo" being driven around by (I presume) the Scots Guards here:



    The Cuckoo footage starts at approx. 2.38.
