Unknown date - Photographed with lots of petrol cans attached and, apparently part of the turret missing (X11.p147), the author believes the broken turret is actually an optical illusion caused by the film. The Graffiti on the side indicating the tank was captured by II Armee has been obscured, this may indicate the tank has been liberated (X42.p188), though this seems unlikely. The "B" on the tank's side may be the first letter of the commander’s surname (see A277).
Mar 18 - Photographed in German hands, awaiting entrainment: X74.p46, presumably in running order
X74.p39, http://www.flickr.com/photos/7700258@N05/4178581163/in/set-72157601073014542/, note the "B" on the tank turret and the position of the last "e" in "armee"
The tank was recovered and repaired by the Germans in August: X75.p180. Note the "B" on the tank turret and half the last "e" in "armee" are still visible.
Being used by the Germans:
