SS188
Thomas Gunn Miniatures
Operated the main gun, aimed, and fired under the commander's direction. Dressed fully in the black tanker uniform he awaits orders whilst scanning ground for the enemy.
A distinctive black uniform: The most recognizable item of clothing for early war panzer crews was the black, double-breasted Panzer wrap jacket. The black colour helped to hide oil and grease stains.
SS panzer divisions often acted as tactical "fire brigades," rushed to block an enemy advance, defend a critical position, or spearhead a counter-attack.
