EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the aftermath of a hard-fought battle during the Normandy Campaign of World War Two. The image shows a knocked-out Panther tank, its once menacing form now reduced to a damaged hulk, surrounded by ruins and men in uniform. The tank, destroyed by an infantry PIAT (Projector, Infantry, Anti-Tank), lies in a narrow street in the French village of Bretteville-en-Orguilleuse. Among the onlookers is Major Oliver Woods, MC, of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters), who is seen with his back to the camera and wearing a flat hat. The PIAT, a portable anti-tank weapon, was a valuable asset for infantry units in the fight against enemy armor. This photograph, taken in 1944, is a testament to the determination and resourcefulness of the Allied forces in the face of formidable opposition. The image is part of an album containing 210 photographs compiled by Major Wilfred Herbert James Sale, MC, providing a visual record of the locations in England and France that bore witness to the events of the war.
