An Sd.Kfz. 131 Marder II self-propelled anti-tank gun of Panzer-Artillerie-Regiment ‘Hermann Göring’ in Southern Italy in late 1943.
Mounting the 7.5cm PaK40/2. 576 Marder II’s were manufactured between June 1942 and June 1943 with another 75 converted from obsolete Pa.Kpfw.II chassis from July 1943 to March 1944. Of interest is the crew having been issued with the standard M38 Fallschirmjäger helmets.
